  • Can you ensure the facets of the of the pavillion line up with the facets you will be cutting on the crown?

  • @kennnmoran Yes, but that's done by aligning a large girdle facet to the lap (on the correct index) after removing the pavilion dop. Some people use keyed dops, which have to be aligned within the transfer fixture.

  • Keyed dops sound good then.

  • Thank you for showing us the transfer. I have had all kinds of advice; using different temp wax, wrapping the stone with a wet paper towel...I figure all that is good advice...looks like I just need to keep practicing to find what works best for me!

  • Very nicely done!

    Next time, though, put a little Tensor light on it...

    You're back-lighted, half the time.

    All in all, though--a great demo!
