    Hello Dale, I wish everybody would answer the questions on line.
    Because these digests are so educational everybody should benefit
    from the answers. I have photos and some simple explanations about
    sugilite carving. As the procedure goes I use the same steps for
    agate. For quartz varities cerium oxide gives better results then
    diamond powder. To prevent water to splash around I have cut a hole
    in one side and put around my carving machine a semitransparent
    plastic box, 3rd photo, in the same picture you see the corborundum
    wheel for shaping the sugilite. In the fourth picture you see my
    diamond carving instruments which I bought from Germany. I have sent
    the address in yesterday's post. I will put a picture off the
    machine itself in my website soon I will let you know.

Kind regards from Turkey,
Oya Borahan
