'Sup gents, So it's almost been three years that I've been working my arms out on this project... which obviously had to be pushed over the edge once I attacked the raytracer and realized it would be JASPER (Just Another Stupid Pixel raytracER :playful: ). I've expanded GemSuite Scanner and...

Time for faceting!

Beerite at its finest :perfect:

This one could do with some facets :)

Heyyy waitaminit there mateyyy. Do these work witth a Dremel? I had asked one of the suppliers years ago if they would make small grinding wheels for Dremels in an asortment of grits, they didn't at the time. Care to give me more info pretty please? [EDIT] "plates", dumb me... want the info...

Wow dude you've come a long way since I last checked up on your faceting tank project. Mine is at a halt right now since I've been working my a$$ out on that faceting software thing, which also comes with a lot of challenges once you want to break new ground.

Wow that's quite the loot bigred! are the reds spinels?

Thanks for the nice words Debbie, I'm working towards that goal indeed! At the moment I'm examining different technical means of aligning the rough after it has been scanned and a best-yield design prepared and orientated. On the exact matter of sapphires I devised a dopping accessory that I...

Well i AM doing my own 3D software! but since it's not finished I did the 3D mesh shot with Cinema4D (imported the points generated by my 3D scan soft). C is awesome but really too far fetched for what I aim in terms of coding ease and time, I've done quite my boatload of C though. I'm also...
