Faceting Classes
All members of the Guild are eligible to attend all classes offered. For beginners, we offer Faceting 101, a 3-hour introduction to the art of faceting, which explains the rudiments of Faceting and the basic operation of a faceting machine. This is the pre-requisite to "Cutting Your First Stone", an 8-hour class which takes a new cutter all the way from start to finish on faceting their first stone.
Cost for the 2 classes is $150. Everything is included. All you need to bring is a pair of optivisors and your lunch.
Classes are held at Reeds Lapidary Workshop in Deleon Springs, Florida on successive Saturdays.
Advanced Faceting classes are offered on an as needed basis and from time to time classes are offered on other Faceting projects like Free-Form stone cutting.
