Equipment can be expensive, though. Now you can - with a lot less time, effort and money than you thought possible - enjoy the thrill of cutting gemstone cabochons on your own machine. What's more, your investment for a professional level 4-Station cabochon machine will require an investment of about $100 - not the $2,000 and up cost for a comparable commercial unit. Look at the illustrations above. That's what is offered here - a method for you to use new, inexpensive off-the-shelf items to create a cabochon cutting machine upon which you can attach 4 separate abrasive elements for a straight-through cabochon cutting experience. In a unique multi-media CD-ROM program for the PC, you will see the secret of how to make such a machine. Every step will be presented with narrated video, animation, illustrations and complete texts. What's so exciting is the fact that you need only average mechanical ability and a minimum of tools. As a matter of fact, the conversion can be performed in a day. The book-length tutorial program is offered in auction by Dr. Gerald Wykoff GG CSM, now retired but still well known throughout the world's gemcutting industry as a lapidary writer and researcher, author, inventor and equipment manufacturer. Just as he won patents with his faceting machine developments, Wykoff has now created a remarkable conversion of a low cost grinder into a high performing cabochon machine. Check the prices. You can pay thousands of dollars for a commercial cabochon machine with 4 cutting stations, but Wykoff's conversion offers the same thing plus a water system, pedestal stand, lighting system -- all for approximately $100. You should know that the plans and the promise of only $100 investment involve only the cutting machine. The wheels and abrasive materials that you elect for equipping the machine would be extra and there's no way of predicting your tastes in accessories. Jukst know that you can equip a cabochon cutter from $50 to $500 depending on the kind of wheels, disks and abrasives you choose. A sintered diamond wheel can easily cost $500 each, but silicon carbide abrasive wheels and belts - that work just as well but don't last as long - can cost only a dollar or so. You get more than comprehensive plans to build either of two versions for a cab machine (Version 1 depends on sanding disks, while Version 2 features traditional cutting wheels and drums). The 6-chapter program shows you how to make a 4-Cabber machine - and then provides complete lessons on beginning and advanced cabochon techniques. You learn to build a machine and then how to use it. The program won't leave you wondering where to get the items. You are provided with the sources and contacts to buy all the things you need to get into cabochon cutting. If you're interested in looking into the exciting world of gemcutting, this program of instructions could be the key to your gem kingdom.
