Preforming a gemstone - Faceting Lesson 2

Welcome back to my "Learning to Facet" Series. This is the second lesson. If you missed the first one, go check it out in my channel under the "Learning to Facet" playlist. I'll be continuing to add to these as I learn myself. In this video, I am discussing how to preform a stone. Preforming refers to the act in which a rough gemstone is shaped into the basic overall shape that is wanted for faceting. A cube like shape for a square cut, a cylinder for a round cut, etc... There are a lot of different ways to go about doing this, and so I am showing how I decided I would prefer to do it, given my limited experience. I am not a facetor by trade, I am a full time professional jeweler.
