You're welcome.

This is the Israeli machine. Check out the SOM or Brahm at kmtjaipur.com

Look for BHandasa Israel and Kalpana Machine Tools India

You need a 48 index dop, then use any trilliant design.

@boblakey1359 sorry, I meant for a jambpeg machine.

Sorry, I don't use diagrams

It's a jamb peg, they don't have protractors

The machine is made by BHandasa, Israel or Kalpana Machine Tools, India

check the KMT Jaipur website for price. A link is also on my website, search for "bobsjambpeg"

Hi Justin, you will find it makes using the jamb peg a pleasurable experience.

The dops are just as important as the machine. The machine part is fine and with good dops, it makes a hassle free faceting system.

If you are serious about your faceting then the modern jamb peg is easier to use than a mast or handpiece machine.

I started faceting about 60 years ago, and have used the jamb peg for the last 25 years

Thank you, the lap was dressed for polishing very small , flat facets.

Home made shellac based wax. I don't use chalk but I think it would work fine.

@@boblakey1359 Thank you for your answer, if it’s not a secret, what do you add to shellac? I made shellac 4, rosin 2 and crocus or chalk 6... but with crocus it seemed better to me. Some of us make a mixture of sealing wax and shellac.

@@boblakey1359 I am from Russia, I watch your videos with interest, I have such a “head”. a copy of the Israeli one, made by a very good turner and 5 additional ones with a collet for 8 sides and 3 additional ones with a collet for 6 sides, I looked at the links that you kindly posted, in India there are different ones, from 4 to 22 they wrote... I don’t think so they are running, I hope I need 5 (8 edges) and 3 pieces (6 edges each) for my needs......

@@СергейВальтман-е6ш The only decent index dops I have seen are the KMT dops, only come in 8 side=64index and 6 side=48 index. But unfortunately they have a minimum purchase quantity. I have made a 8 side=96 index but hardly ever use them. I would not use the index dopsticks on Ebay or Etsy as the ones I have seen ate very poor quality. contact KMT Jaipur, maybe they will sell you a small quantity.

@@СергейВальтман-е6ш I've kept my recipe secret because the last person I told started selling it. My machine runs 1400 and 2800rpm, and as long as I run a drop of water I don't have any problems. I just use the two ingredients, 4 parts shellac and 2 parts filler and it works very well for me. So once you get a recipe which works well for you, stick with it as it's going to be better than any commercial dop wax.

This machine made in Israel, quite expensive. I would recommend checking out the SOM jamb peg made by out KMT Jaipur,

Hi, I have never seen a used jamb peg machine foe sale. The KMT Som machine is the same as mine and that is the one I would recommend. If you have a base you can purchase just the head, have a look at my website- bobsjambpeg.com

Thank you

KMT Jaipur make the Som jamb peg, same as the Israeli machine

That's the beauty of the jamb peg, no gadgets, easy to use and excellent repeatability.

I bought my first mast machine in 1967. Been using the jamb peg for the last 25 years....it's not hard.

@@boblakey1359 The main thing I recall from around 1980, I believe I had a graves mast machine, is that the mast has flex and that's where skill has to be developed. This peg process seems allot faster, and more accurate?. I see you also had some left-hand down pressure? Great video.

@@constitutionalradiation3587 It is easy and it's faster

If you ever do then buy a good one, not the cheap junk.

That's 4 hours actual cutting time, preforming and transferring not included. Min 3 rows pav and 2 rows crown.

The only tool required for this method is a knurling tool, you should be able to purchase this from any machine tool supply shop. For small stones probably not necessary.

Is this a full jamb peg machine with adjustable / reverse motor, laps, etc

@@KennyRupp Most people seem to disregard the table attachment but it's an essential piece of the machine and reverse is necessary to use it

Edwin, did you buy a Som? The only useful dops are the 8 and 6 sided

Hi, the Israeli machine is not being made at this time and was expensive. The alternative is the Som jamb peg from KMT Jaipur, this is the same as the Israeli machine, for more information check out my website bobsjambpeg.com

It's not set for a particular angle, I set it at approx 32deg for the crown and adjust when pre-polishing, maybe up, maybe down a bit. All I need is 8 equal sized facets which gives me a girdle line . Only used for small stones.

Set an approximate crown angle for the stone, cut the 8 crown main facets of equal size, which gives me a girdle line and then it's removed

The Som is the same as my Israeli built machine. I have a table attachment from KMT and the build is very good. Of all the jamb pegs I would have to go for the Som. The base and electrical side...I don't know. The head itself will last a lifetime, nothing to wear out or go wrong.

Thank you for the information. I’m gonna make the leap and make the purchase this June for the KMT. please continue with your awesome videos.

@@KennyRupp If you are serious about using the jamb peg you will find you can cut perfect meets, quicker and easier than any other machine.

@@boblakey1359 yes very serious and excited to start faceting with the Jamb Peg. Thanks for your help

Hi Paul, the only item that matches your description is the table cutting attachment, and only fits the Israeli or Som machine and only available from KMT, kmtjaipur.com/som-brahm-index-head/ I have a website, bobsjambpeg.com/ may give you a better idea of what she needs.

It's part of an old Korean faceting head and I just added the bearings

My machine is from Israel. Check out Indian faceting machines as there is one called the "SOM", looks the same as mine.

Hi, it's a complete 64 index gear. If you can email me then I can send you a diagram which will explain all.

Bob, would you mind doing a video that explains it?

@@jenrick4804 Have done a website: bobsjambpeg.com

@@boblakey1359 Awesome!

Do you have the same dopsticks?

Check out Kalpana Engineering, India, They have one which ooks the same as mine

Hi, probably Thailand but you can get enough information from youtube videos, Get your machine and start cutting, best way to learn.

@@boblakey1359 Thank you for giving me time, now everyone is waiting for your first videos on learning JAMB PEG FACETING

@@dioufali2288 I'll try to do something which will get someone started with my style of jamb peg.

@@boblakey1359 🤲🏼

Sorry, can only offer the videos but i'm happy to help with any questions you may have.

Check out Kalpana Machine Tools, best I've seen so far.

@@boblakey1359 thanks you.

Thank you

Depends on the stones I'm cutting. Somewhere between 30-60 small sapphires and then a good clean and dress again with an old 600 topper can continue to use untill the scoring is gone...takes a long time.

@@boblakey1359 thanks for the reply. Appreciate.
