Cut Gems/Guide Lens

From A Tale in the Desert
Jump to navigationJump to search

This is one of the easiest cuts.

Load a gem, and open the catalog.
Pin up the Lens Cut as a guide.

Start by using Sanding Disk #1 to shave off one layer at a time.
Look for a flat, unmarred surface large enough for the lens.

Rotate twice on the Z axis, and use Sanding Disk #1 to shave off layers until only 1 layer thick.
(Note: if you find a better flat surface, rotate back to the original side and continue.)

Now rotate on the X axis, and use Sanding Disk #2.
Keep turning and cutting until your gem matches the guide.
