[QUOTE="Wally69, post: 430179, member: 1916"] Sorry......thought I put that in. :8 Stone came in at 1.85ct. Quite a low yield, was initially hoping to keep some of the inclusions in the stone. I had problems initially with a number of cracks that reduced the girdle significantly, then some chipping of the edges that needed to be polished down and just prior to finishing the pavilion the darn thing jumped off the dop and I reset it to miss another inclusion. Mostly self created beginner issues, but happy with the end product. [/QUOTE]
