Frequently Asked Questions
-
Q: What drill bit do I need for drilling gemstone beads?
A: Use a solid diamond drill bit in 0.5–1.5mm diameter for standard bead holes. Drill wet at 2,000–4,000 RPM with very light pressure. A drill guide helps maintain perpendicular entry on round beads. -
Q: What diamond burs are best for jewelry stone carving?
A: Ball, cylinder, and flame-profile diamond burs in 1–3mm diameter are the most versatile for jewelry stone carving and detail work. Use in a flex-shaft handpiece or Dremel at medium speed with water cooling. -
Q: How do I get a high-gloss polish on a gemstone cabochon for jewelry?
A: After pre-polish grinding (1200–3000 grit resin), use diamond paste (0.5–1 micron) on a ceramic or leather lap for hard stones, or cerium oxide on a leather lap for quartz and softer stones.
