GEM-TEMP™ TEMPLATES The Gem-Temp™ line consists of six aluminum and three clear plastic templates manufactured by the Graves Company. Use them to scribe outlines of the most popular cabochon sizes and shapes on rock slabs, prior to sawing or grinding. The templates are basic tools of any lapidary workshop.
ALUMINUM TEMPLATES. The colorful anodized aluminum templates offer rigidity and durability. The double sided templates allow placing a slab between the two connecting templates and scribe each side. Using this technique, grinding and sawing the cabochon become faster and more accurate.
PLASTIC TEMPLATES. The see-through clear plastic templates are a low cost alternative and allow total visibility of the slab. This makes positioning the shape, relative to any flaws or patterns in the slab, quick and easy. Color coded hot stamped markings will not wear off.
SCRIBING PENCILS. The basic tool for marking the outline of the cabochon shapes on slabs. The pencils, one aluminum and the other brass, are available as a set or individually. The scribes are easy to see and will not wash off during sawing or grinding. Sharpen pencils on any grinding wheel.
