npub1nqw7xe4nk74au74fy3qjwj8yh5e6gndm3mz8t04ev9ngpncay9xquumelw (npub1nqw…melw) If it helps, I can cut most designs in two hours of solid work. Four if it is especially complex.

When I teach new cutters, I tell them to plan on two six-hour days to finish the most basic design consisting of only only 31 facets.

Cutting gems uses precision built hardware (usually staring from $4000 for professional use) and a series of laps with diamond abrasives and oxide polishing agents to grind, shape, and polish each face on a stone by hand.
