Creating in stone doesn't have to be "a grind". You can cut, shape and polish gemstones with
speed and ease if you have the right tool for your particular job. Just as a hammer and saw are the
basic tools of a carpenter, so is the grinding/polishing machine and rock saw the basic tools of the
lapidary. The Diamond Pacific gem-makers are top performers because of the diamond grinding
and polishing wheel, the way they are made, and their special grit combination. They work fast and
efficiently, giving you a beautiful polish on most stones in a matter of minutes.
The procedure is simple. Grind your cabochon to shape on the 80 grit Galaxy metal-bond diamond grinding wheel, then
proceed to the 220 grit Galaxy wheel to remove all deep scratches. Coarse sanding is done on the 280 grit Nova resin-bond
diamond wheel. Spend enough time on this wheel to completely remove all scratches left by the grinding wheels -- usually only a
few minutes-- then proceed to the three Nova wheels on the right for final sanding. Most stones properly
prepared on the grinding wheels and the 280 Nova will take only a few minutes more on the three remaining Novas. To achieve a final polish use the included canvas pad and 14,000
diamond compound.
