I'm a unique individual. From looking at me most people get the impression that I'm a long haired hippy stoner. That is just how I like to look. In reality, I am a genuine good person, always there to help someone in need. Also I'm extremely intellegent, and very good with my hands. I can build or fix just about anything. This has gained me the nickname Mc Guyver. My interests and many and varied. My most recent endevors are making for scratch, a gem faceting rig, in which I'm now cutting my third stone, a round brilliant topaz, and with one more issue to fix on my lap, is going very well. The lap in which I speak is the rotating abrasive surface that does the cutting and polishing of the stone. I have a bit of a wobble that makes it hard to keep all sequential cuts on each row similar. Today that should be solved. With the price of a faceting machine starting at 1,500 dollars (and thats for a piece of junk), I choose this way to go about furthering my interest in gemstones and have only spent 105dollars. half of that was on diamond grit. I also built my own vibratory tumbler, regular tumbler and a mini tumbler, for all those chips of stones that I can't just throw away. Another talent I have also been persuing is finding all kinds of items people are wanting to purchase at very low prices on the internet. Unbelievable what you can find with a bit of persistance, and there has to be a million people making money off this information. Here is a good example, how many people have you seen selling wholesaler lists, and how many do they give you. Well not to burst anyones bubble, but you only have to know 2 or three websites, and you can have thousands of wholesale sites, and they are free to join. nuff bout me.
