by Jim Perkins.

Faceting on Facetron. Step-by-step cutting instructions and diagrams are presented in sequential lessons for four basic gemstone designs: a round brilliant, a standard round brilliant, a center-point oval and a trillion. Also provided are cutting diagrams for eleven additional designs including five round brilliant variations, an apex crown octagon, a lazy oval, an apex crown trillion, a cut corner rectangle, and two square cushion designs. This is an excellent resource for not only Facetron owners but anyone interested in starting out in faceting.
