    I know I'm going to get some requests to buy these, but I don't plan to sell any. Check out my friend's Etsy shop. He's the one who taught me how to do these and he does them better than I do. www.etsy.com/shop/KiddRocksLapidary?fbclid=IwAR1HZjnKVRh9M68DFBPc3If5iRyjyCPBGUbFdlipXuyjyauDG8RpNinQY2o

      Thanks for subscribing, Tempered Storm. I publish my main video every Friday evening. It's either a rock hunting video or a lapidary video like this one. On Tuesdays I have been publishing a Rocks in a Box video where I just show some rocks that I have tumbled. Those videos aren't as popular, but the people who like them seem to really like them.

    Interesting, I was a cabinetmaker for many years and I can give you a time saving tip when using that glass grinding machine you cut the grooves with.
    If you put a washer with the correct bore size over the cutter and clamp that on top if it is the correct diameter you can use it as a depth guide

      Hi Symon, that’s a great tip, except that the bit wears down as you use it. I suppose I could have a series of washers that I change as the bit wears down. I’ll have to think about how I can make that work. Thanks!

      It is progressive and if you do get it right I would say half a millimeter difference will do it.
      Do you know any metal turners who could help? You could trade off for the goods, check the sizes you need and see if they are stock washers.
      Good luck.

      The funny thing is that she wore a lot of jewelry I made for her to work. She's a teacher. She had only worn a few of these to school when school was closed in March. This year she has a job working from home with the online students and she never wears necklaces anymore. Maybe I should have gotten a round tuit earlier.
