I had to come back and look at that coffin pendant. Love the bevels! With Halloween coming, my daughter would grab that in a heartbeat! Great job. I really thought doing the bevels would be easy, but holy cow! It was way more difficult for me than doing a regular round faced cabochon. To keep the angles the same as you move through the wheels without making multiple faces was just really hard. Maybe it’s easier with a flat lap or something, but with wheels, yikes!

I think the flat lap must be easier. My son used to make a lot of beveled coffins for his Goth friends with the flat lap. I have done a few beveled cuts with wheels and yes, it is difficult. You did a good job.

I would NEVER be able to do bevels like that on wheels. Flat lap, no problem. Kudos on doing those on wheels.
