    While I'm on the subject of stone "cutting" (previous post)-- 

    I have Sinkankas "Gem Cutting" and Vargas "Facetting", but neither
    of these books goes very far into the nitty-gritty of the kinds of
    problems one encounters when actually cutting real stones. An
    ongoing class or a mentor would be great, but doesn't seem to be
    available here and now. I could waste an awful lot of time and rough
    learning by trial and (lots of) error. 

    Does anyone know of a book(s) with more detailed information about
    the processes of faceting? Any suggestions would be much
    appreciated.
