Community for discussing faceting and gemstones.
If you are a cutter, show off your work, provide tips and tricks or ask for advice.
If you don’t cut stones, feel free to ask questions!
No selling of stones, rough or anything else. You can however post links to vendors that you recommend.
Thanks for the advice! It seems the overwhelming theme here is I need a nice 3k lap. I might try Lightnings Laps to see how they do.
I know I'm nowhere near this point, but how does an end-of-life lap behave? Does it just polish slower, or start to polish unevenly, or...?
