Making a Sapphire D20 from a Cold War Crystal!
I finally cut another D20 on my CutKit! This sapphire was meant to be used to defend aircraft from heat-seeking missiles but didn't quite make it. It went much smoother than my first one and I really like how it came out. If you'd like to purchase this D20 you can check it out on GemsofScience.com , and to learn more about the cutkit and how you can start cutting gems for under $500 check out www.facet.ing .

    You said *"Its heat resistant and hard UNLIKE SILICON"* ... wrongfully. Silicon wont melt unless you put it in a pure oxygen enbiroment AND crank the heat up into the thousands of degrees... and its literally harder or as hard as glass 😂 (seeing as theyre made the same way from the same element) The only time it SEEMS to be "not hard" is when its printed in a sheet a few microns thick. Then it can bend (like a thin sheet of metal can bend) but also like a sheet of metal... ITS STILL HARD just flexy NileRed just made a short where he mamages to melt silicon in his lab .... after spending (i think more than) 10 grand on some crazy machine that can accomplish it.

    • @AngryTurtleGems

      Silicon won't melt but heat shock can easily shatter it while moissanite is very resistant. It is about hardness 7, while moissanite is 9.5 (which is several times harder than 7 in linear terms.)

    • @AngryTurtleGems
      @AngryTurtleGems 8 дней назад

      It works with similar machines built to the same general spec (there seem to be at least two factories making these, maybe more). Some parts like the laps, rough and polishing compound are more universal but getting the kit just for them probably doesn't make sense. Have you decided on a model to get?

    My kit arrived yesterday, and today I followed this video to cut my first gem! I rushed a bit out of excitement, so the fit and finish of my stone leaves a lot to be desired, but I'm shocked how well it turned out! My main struggle was understanding where best to set the height of the cutter, and keeping consistent angles when moving from cutting to polishing on the different facets. I'm hyped to do more!
