Cutting gemstones: australian sapphire

I cut a faceted sapphire in this video. Im using an ultra tec v2 faceting machine. This stone is from australia . some of the worlds best come from there and also some of the finest gem cutters and faceters.
I use these websites for faceting diagrams for cutting.

Beautiful job, Brent. Did you get the rough from Tim in Oz? I like your new lap. I have a DiaZ that is similar in design, but my wife won't let it go. LOL Thanks for sharing your nice work. Be safe my friend.
