I have a project! Make a pair of dice out of some of my new rose quartz slab! https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/ys9GpVaH/image.JPG

I am open for tips and other recommended projects. I just need the tools and my father's advice and I'll be set!

@Siral_Exan: oh and a diamond whetstone is a decent way to shape a stone.

@Siral_Exan: Diamond burs and a rotary tool is probably your best bet, lapidary machines are better but much more expensive.

Unfortunately I'm more of a metal smith than a gem cutter so my advice will be limited.
