How To Make A High Quality Cabochon

How to make a high-quality cabochon with master lapidarist Keith Horst.

Keith is the best! I was lucky enough to take the first semester of his classes at Yavapai. Had I not moved, I would have kept going. If you are in Prescott, I highly recommend his class and his son Alex’s jewelry classes.

I feel like that stone would look really nice as an earring

[@chrisgardner2431]

thanks Keith. nice to see a demo since I will be starting my first cab on a GP-6. I installed new diamond wheels and belts. In particular I was wondering if the 3 geysers I have are spitting up enuf water, and from your video I think they are. now to see if my 80, 220, 600 and 1000 grits will do before a final polish on my leather pad. I don't have a 3000 grit ... but maybe my assortment will work well enough.

Nothing wrong about asking, but I suggest thinking things through instead/too. Why do you use water? To cool and remove sludge, as I've understood things - if things don't get hot, you are probably doing fine. For the record, I have close to no experience with polishing stones, but I still believe, my thinking is correct.

Прекрасное видео.

Great job!

[@gowman813]

And how much would a piece like that sale for?

[@TheMagikSmok]

Hello, it's a great result! What is the reference of this machine?

[@assmaster420]

Thank you for making a very informative how-to. Keith, I see that you run your 8” machine at the same RPM for grinding and polishing. I have that same grinder and use the speed adj for each step(most of the time). Am I wasting my time with a slower speed?

[@diamondmeteoriteandotherro8507]

I have some stone I like to cut

[@gracesJewelryAndDesign]

Rough but if they sell, that's all that matters.

[@username46100]

Keith does great work! Leave it to him to make a beautiful cabochon out of slab that looks like a piece of poo. :)
