I did receive the faceting machine but without the 5 dops that were supposed to come with it. Then there is a problem with the water container, with the vibrations of the machine the little knob where the water comes out unscrews and jumps every 2 minutes so it's impossible to work normally with water continuously, I have to stop all the time to screw it back in. Then, and most importantly, it seems that a part is missing to lock the angle on the mast. You can't lock the angle with the pole because the bearings on the oscillating bit are too loose, there is no way to set and maintain an angle to properly facet a stone and also You can't cut a girdle at 90degrees, there isn't enough room. So I am very disappointed with this machine which is totally useless for faceting stones, it can just be used as a flatlap to make cabochons but that's not why I bought it because I already have a cabochoner.
