How gemstones are cut and polished, faceting beryl.

I cut a round brilliant gemstone in beryl in this video. Im a hobby cutter located in the USA, i use an ultra tec v2 faceting machine with a digital angle readout.

Some of the faceting design diagrams i use can be found here:

The faceting machine i use is a model that is not manufactured anymore but new improved models are available here:

Im a member of the united states faceters guild and would advise anyone who is a gem faceter or wants to learn become a member.
