Hello all! I'm new to big lapidary tools, I've always had an interest in rocks and fixing/making jewelry from scraps.
What brings me here today? My grandfather is was a lapidary guy. Unfortunately I was younger and him much older and I never got the opportunity to learn from him, only ever received polished rocks. Well I've recently acquired some of his old tools that I paid for, a 6" beacon holiday model B and a beacon saw. Possibly more to come. I look forward to digging through here and also asking all the questions!
