Hi All!

I want to try to make some intersia soon, i watched all your pictures here, all are very nice! I live them!

My question, how do you  make the groove?  If you have any pictures please post some from  it!


For my simple cabs i used thin dianond cutting blade , holding the stone in my hend. I did it only few times, it was not nice but after we hide it.

I am not sure what groove you mean. Are you talking about a groove-wrapped pendant? Maybe I misunderstand.

Should I understand you also made some groove wraps? I'd like to see them.

There are some cutting methods pictured in the section named "Cabbing and grooving machines", which you will find by scrolling down on the forum.

Janos,

You will see a couple of topics pinned to the top of this page related to the grooving units that Adrian and others have made.
