I started cutting a stone for a client, and thought
I would photo document the cutting along the way
together with some descriptions of what is going
on.
Click on this LINK to go to the page showing the cutting process. The stone is a pink tourmaline, being cut into a square step. As many of you know, I really don't like cutting this design, so I thought maybe breaking up the cutting with the pictures would help get my mind of the fact that I'm not having that much fun cutting the stone. The finished stones always look terrific after being cut, and always sell well, I just don't find them fun to cut.
