Learn some new tips on preforming rough material for faceting a gem. Lapidary, Steve Moriarty, explains and demonstrates his techniques on how to preform a rough gem to get rid of any inclusions that are within and to finally determine the shape to cut from the rough. This way you'll find out where your culet, crown, and table should be. Ideally, preforming will get you the best yield from a piece of rough.
