I appreciate all these novel machines you've been showcasing. There is a revival in new approaches to the traditional faceting systems. I'd love to see what your ideal machine would look like! My prototyping has slowed a bit with the cold weather and the need to cast alloy components. In addition to making an "ideal" machine another approach I'm exploring is retrofitting vintage heads to the linear handpiece design. It would open the world of vertical faceting to more cutters for a lot less than buying an entirely new handpiece and rail system.
I hope once we get relocated work will start on my ideal Handpiece prototype. I have people who have skills that can help now and I know exactly what I want out of it. Let’s see what emerges.
@@JustinKPrim With all that you know about faceting and the various types of machines that will be exciting to see! A couple of designs that I have yet to start are a departure from any existing machines. For one, imagine the handpiece and lap combined for a truly portable design intended for preformed stones. It might be hard to picture but it would roughly be a quadrant that slides parallel to a motor with a 3" lap attached. That and the other concept (secret for now lol) are distant future projects after this vertical lap with overhead sliding rail handpiece are finished and thoroughly tested. Can't wait to see your new shop when you get all settled in!
Thanks for this video
I saw this machine for sale on marketplace in Montreal for quite a while. I was very confused by the design at the time. It wasn’t too expensive im feeling like I missed out lol. I’m very happy to watch this video thank you for the awesome content!
I still have one machine in Montreal if you would liek to see it, jsut let me know.
Great job sir.very appreciating.
Love the demo!
Cool machine. Haven’t tried jampeg yet
bonjour votre machine m'interset ,le prix est combien
How much is he selling those for?
Not sure. I think it’s on his site. Link in the video description
Too bad that he didn't show how to cut a stone ! And how fast a jambpeg can do that ^^
That’s in the next video. However he’s not a pro cutter so don’t expect pro speed 😅
@@JustinKPrim Exact Justin, it is a hobby for me and building machines take all my free time.
Listen this is just Thai machine nothing els
You have it backwards. The Thai machine came from France. The Thai machine is just a cheap version of the French machine from 1885. Check about my video about this history of the Jambpeg and I talk about it.
