Awesome job with the stones. I did some lapidary when I was in the Army and played around with it several years ago. Never cut stones though. That is a step beyond my skills. I recently saw a video of a guy cutting a stone to have a ghost figure visible from the front. I don't care that he had a computer to help him figure the faceting it was a complicated cut that boggled the mind.

It's not as difficult as it appears. Lol. Just a set of steps and patience. I do some fantasy cutting also. That requires a lot more skill. It does produce some amazing stones though. John Dyer is a fantastic fantasy cutter.
