Gem cutters in Bendigo
Transcript
00:00All right, so this is our lapidary workshop, also known as the rock room, where we cut our raw rocks.
00:07That's called slabbing. So we pop them on the saws. We've got a variety of saws in here. We
00:13then end up with a slab, and we end up putting them on dot sticks, and then we go to our machines,
00:22and we learn to cut and polish our rocks, moving through the grades, until we have a really nice
00:28polished cabochon. Okay, so this is our silver sniffing room. We've got our jeweler's bench
00:49benches, so that we've got lots of space for people to make their wire work. So sterling
00:56silver jewelry is made out here. We've got all the equipment, and people can come
01:01along and learn how to make sterling silver jewelry.
