  • How do I choose a faceting machine?
  • Your faceting machine should have a decent selection of dops — flats, V-dops, and cones. Make sure you have the same sizes in all three types of dops (sets). Also, if they're keyed, make sure they actually fit in the quill of the faceting machine before you buy it.
  • Where can I buy faceting equipment?
  • The United States Faceters Guild (USFG) is a good place to inquire about what might be available in your area. Buy just what you need to get started. You can always buy more faceting equipment as you progress, whether you discover you want it or need it. This will help you save money and keep you from buying things you may never need or use.
  • How do I learn to DOP a faceting machine?
  • Even replacing parts and tools for new machines can be expensive. It's a good idea to contact the faceting machine manufacturer and find out about the availability of parts, the possibility for upgrades, and so on. I recommend beginners learn to dop with wax. Using wax takes practice, but it's much more versatile and convenient than using glues.
  • What are the different types of Faceting machines?
  • There are many types and models available. Many people use machines by Facetron, Graves, Poly-Metric, Ultra Tec, OMNI, Facette, and other manufacturers. And they're happy with them. Of course, you'll hear lots of opinions about faceting machines and "which one is the best."
  • Are DOPS keyed?
  • Note: There are also SPECIAL DOPS, such as rectangular Emerald Dops, in F and V configurations, Thin Emerald Dops for tourmaline, and Pot Dops –which are oblong (“roasting pan” shaped) for transfer of Marquise or Ovals. For the same reason that Vee Dops are not keyed, Pot Dops are not keyed.
  • Does a faceting machine need an index gear?
  • You'll rarely find a faceting machine for sale without an index gear on it. Nevertheless, keep in mind that index gears for some older machines are hard to get or no longer available. For basic cutting, starters will definitely need a 96 (standard on most newer machines) and an 80 or 120 index gears
