rbagateky Posted January 14, 2009 Report Share Posted January 14, 2009 I just joined to learn more about carving small items, get tips and read about what others are currently doing in carving. I have only carved some small fire agate cabochons, agate leaves and other shapes a few years ago. Cutting cabochons has been a thing I have been doing for over 30 years. My machines all use either sintered diamond wheels or plated diamond wheels. I just decided to try doing some more small carvings in agates and chalcedonies so I bought in the last 3 months from Diamond Pacific Tool Corp a Multi-Flex System with the parts to make 4 different machine configurations. Also purchased 12 Inland Lapidary Sintered diamond burrs in 6 shapes, 6 in 100 grits and 6 in 220 grit. A Foredom tool with 3 or 4 handpiece and a lot of other tools is also available. Since I have had a lot of surgery 2 years ago I am only working and setting things up slowly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
