Faceting Gemstones
We had another full house for the April workshop. Carsten brought in a display case of our four beginner cuts for the group to see (photo below). He used this at the TotE show to illustrate to people what they would be making if they joined us. There were door prizes for everyone, and a lot of good work was accomplished.
NMFG had at least two members present during the three days of the AGMC TotE Show. We talked with many people who stopped by our booth, demonstrated faceting, and showed people examples of the gems we create using Carsten’s two display cases. Many thanks to Carsten for manning our booth for all three days. Also, thanks to all the members who helped out with one or more sessions at the booth, including: George, Andy, Craig, Deon, and Ed. Andy spearheaded the set-up of our gem collection which looked great (see photos below).
