    I remember reading an old magazine article, an owner of a mine got
    hold of a used German cabochon machine, it would produce, I think it
    said, up to 20 20-something by what ever cabs in 1 1/2 minutes.
    (Final polish is by tumbler.) This was all I could find; it wasn't
    easy. 

    I wanted to find something not made in India, as two links were, the
    first is in "Rolls-Royce class."

    Highland Park, now defunct made a semi automatic cabochon machine.
    You may wish to try this also, it is by snail mail only. (Not
    everything is on the web, nor can you always find a company address
    listed on the web, I did find this. I am sure there are many others
    out there. Some libraries have manufacturer's catalogs of products,
    that is the hard way to do it, but complete.)
