My very first cut (pxlmo.com)

I just received my v5 last week and I've been working on my very first stone. Technically this is my second, but I FUBARed the first one beyond salvation so this one is my first "completed" stone.

It's a very included garnet, gifted to me by my teacher for practice. The design is Andrew Brown's Little Princess cut.

I'm experimenting with linking videos hosted on Pixelfed because in all honesty my gemstone photo skills suck and don't do this pretty little stone justice quite like the video does.

Thank you!!! I am so excited to start doing this, and will try to share on here as I make more stones. It's been great seeing you two share yours and that really helped me get hyped about my machine coming in hahaha.
