Lapidary Grinding and Polishing

At FACETS we feel the following cabbing machines are the absolute best value for your money on the market today. These Diamond Pacific Cabbing Machines are top performers because of their diamond wheels, efficient design and quality construction. Therefore they will make short work of shaping and polishing your gemstones.

These durable units used by professionals and hobbyists alike, require NO special hook-ups or plumbing, and operate on a standard 110V outlet (A similar motor is available for export operating on 230 volts 50 HZ). First and foremost, all six wheels are mounted at once so you can proceed from one step to the next during the entire grinding, polishing operation, without wasting time to change wheels. All units come mounted on a Formica baseboard, with a spra-mist coolant system (that provides plenty of water to the wheels while you work, keeping your stones cool and the rock dust down), manual and safety glasses which must be worn when operating any of the following machines.

Why FACETS is the best to serve your needs:

Over 50 years experience in the industry and the field.
Trained Sales Consultants
Customer Support 6 Days a Week!
Quality Items You Can Count On Made in the U.S.A.

Please allow 1-3 weeks for shipment of all Diamond Pacific Gem Makers, as they are special ordered and shipped directly from the factory.

PLEASE NOTE: These units ships directly from the factory, therefore any orders shipped to a California address must be charged California Sales Tax.

The following step-by-step guide book will aid you in mastering the art of lapidary cutting and polishing.

Opal & Gemstone Jewelry Cutting • Designing • Setting..., by award winning cutter Paul B. Downing, Ph.D. Features a unique approach to teaching, taking each of several agates and opals from rough through cutting and wax design to a completed piece of jewelry. The results of this detailed, Step-by-Step instruction book will teach you everything you need to know!
It’s time! Both award-winning books, Opal Cutting Made Easy and Opal Advanced Cutting & Setting are now Out-of-Print. Instead of simply re-printing both titles, the decision was made to completely revise and two titles, expanding and enhancing the text to include all cabochons…whether they be agate, chrysoprase, petrified wood, tigereye, etc. Don't worry…OPAL has it’s own sections which will include all the tips and tricks of the two previous books but include updated locations, techniques and contact information with 18 color photos/32 illustrations. 320 pages of color, B&W photos and diagrams, softbound. A real bargain!! In Stock for immediate shipping, weight 2 lbs. Order NOW! Only $29.95. Plus Shipping.
