Basic Lapidary: The art of rock shaping and polishing
Join us at MakeIt Labs for a hands-on workshop where you'll learn the ancient art of rock shaping and polishing using grinding and polishing wheels. Discover the techniques and tools needed to turn rough rocks into beautiful gemstones. Our experienced instructors will guide you through the process, sharing tips and tricks along the way. Whether you're a beginner or looking to refine your skills, this event is perfect for anyone interested in lapidary. Don't miss this opportunity to unleash your creativity and create stunning pieces of art from nature's treasures!
Cabochons are the slightly domed rocks and gemstones found in rings and pendants. Our two "cabbing" machines can shape and polish rocks, and it's easier than most people believe.
The course fee includes all tools and supplies, including rock slabs, for use in the class. Students will have their choice of rose quartz, jasper, or snowflake obsidian to create their masterpieces. Students also get three slabs for use on their own later.
MakeIt Lab members who take this course are authorized to use the lapidary studio on their own.
