Lapidary Art: The Basic Cabochon

8. Rough Cut
The rest of the cutting is done using the "All you Need". It has color coded wheels of various diamond grits. I'm starting this batch with a 180 grit wheel. The grinding process is cooled and lubricated by a slow stream of water over the surface of the wheel. These are the cabochons after the rough shaping.
