Frequently Asked Questions

  • Q: What diamond saw blade do I need for cutting gemstones?
    A: For gemstone and cabochon cutting on a trim saw, a thin-rim diamond blade is recommended. Pro Slicer and Super Slicer ultra-thin blades (0.004"–0.012" kerf) offer minimal material loss for valuable gem rough. Red Thin Rim sintered blades provide a good balance of thin kerf and long blade life for general lapidary trim work.
  • Q: What is the difference between a trim saw and a slab saw?
    A: Trim saws use smaller blades (4"–10") for precise trimming of small to medium stone pieces — ideal for trimming slabs to shape and cutting preforms. Slab saws use larger blades (10"–24"+) to cut large rough rocks and boulders into flat slabs for further processing. Most lapidary studios use both — a slab saw for initial slabbing and a trim saw for precise trimming.
  • Q: Can diamond band saw blades cut curved shapes in stone?
    A: Yes — diamond band saw blades allow curved and freeform cuts in stone, tile, and hard materials, making them ideal for artistic lapidary work, tile cutting, and any application where straight saw cuts are insufficient. The continuous loop blade allows the workpiece to be guided through curves during cutting.
  • Q: What is a diamond loop wire saw used for?
    A: Diamond loop wire saws are flexible diamond-coated wire loops used for hand cutting stone, glass, and hard materials in irregular shapes and field applications where power saws are impractical. The flexible wire allows cutting in any direction and around curves — useful for specimen preparation, fossil extraction, and artistic stone cutting.
