About this event
Description: This course will provide students with a basic introduction to faceting. Students will learn how to operate a mast-style faceting machine (Ultra-tec VL) to cut and polish a rose-cut gem using meetpoint methods. General faceting topics will be discussed and demos will be provided. Given the short time of the course, the class time focus will be getting hands-on experience on the machines to cut and polish a gem.
Required: No pre-requisite for this course though Lapidary 1.0 is suggested.
Students are recommended to bring an Opti-Visor or other form of general magnification.
Start and end times: September 5, 10am - 6pm
