    I do understand this, though I really appreciate the effort of
    describing the process (as others may as well). So far, I haven't
    been able to get this to do much on faceted stones, but I will
    revisit it. I really do need to make the process as "idiot-proof" as
    possible, since I'll be doing it with beginners, in a hotel
    conference room. Bright-cutting is out of the question! But my
    beginning students in a real jewelry studio have loved this project,
    so I'm sure it'll all work out.
