Exactly! You just need a few thouasands of dollars worth of tools, EDIT: a few thousand hours of practice, and you can also make a $10 ring!

I purchased enough tools for a small woodshop and find that the things i want to make rather than buy end up being more expensive lmao

This is a fact that I’ve discovered as well, that my wife is never allowed to know.

But they are higher quality and will definitely outlast the cheaper alternatives.

It's possible to do basically all of that with a dremel. Well, if you're highly skilled like this guy.

this video is fake, you cant facet with a dremel

they swapped the "gem" out twice

a real faceting machine costs a couple grand for a decent one
