In the past I used a Graves mast and the cutting head used doos with a tiny hole and brass rod to align the dop to the index. This worked really well on transfer to align both dops.
Now with my ultratec I swear I have yet to get a properly aligned index on transfer with their transfer jig. I have to always test a polish on a girdle facet and use the cheater to re-align the index.
Anyone have any tips?
Esoteric one for all of you … r/faceting used to discuss faceting gemstones. Also r/gemstones … what can I say it’s a hobby I enjoy. 😁
