  • Bambu Lab X1-Carbon printer beside a laptop running Bambu Studio. Screen shows a dop stick model loaded for printing. Large caution sign reads “Requires Enclosed Chamber,” indicating these files are optimized for engineering-grade materials like polycarbonate. Demonstrates plug-and-play 3mf project files for enclosed printers.
  • Screenshot of an optimized polycarbonate filament profile labeled “PC – Aetherium Tuned,” showing multiple print plates filled with Gem Axis V3 parts. The image demonstrates pre-tuned print settings for engineering-grade polycarbonate, optimized for repeatability, strength, and precision in makerspace environments.
  • Partially assembled Gem Axis V3 polycarbonate frames laid out on a cutting mat, with heat-set inserts already installed. The image illustrates straightforward assembly of the alignment tool using printed parts and hardware, reinforcing accessibility for makers building the tool themselves from digital files.
  • Fully assembled Gem Axis V3 alignment tool holding a gemstone at the dop, with knurled adjustment knobs and centering screws visible. The image shows the completed makerspace-built ecosystem tools in use, demonstrating precise stone alignment prior to faceting or cabbing operations.
  • Close-up view of machined M3 screws, nuts, and printed polycarbonate knobs laid out for Gem Axis V3 assembly. The image documents the required hardware components used to build the alignment tool from digital files, supporting accurate, adjustable stone centering.
  • Rows of printed knurled adjustment knobs in white and orange polycarbonate arranged on a cutting mat beside stainless hardware. The image highlights included knob design files that provide tactile control for fine centering adjustments during gemstone alignment.
  • Close-up of a printed polycarbonate Gem Axis V3 arm with brass heat-set inserts installed, shown alongside loose inserts and tools. The image documents the reinforced threaded interfaces used in the alignment tool to ensure durability and repeatable precision adjustments.
  • Lapis Lazuli Cabochons and freeform stones mounted on dops and arranged on a small tray, illustrating that the Gem Axis V3 alignment system is used not only for faceting but also for cabbing and high-value stone positioning where accurate centering is critical.
  • Studio scene showing the Gem Axis V3 alignment tool alongside the Gem Xfer magnetic transfer jig and a dop tray. The image places the alignment tool within the broader Aetherium lapidary ecosystem, emphasizing modular workflow integration for gemstone cutting and transfer processes.
  • Text reads “Or your Existing Setup” and “Fits 6mm jigs.” The image shows the Gem Axis V3 stone alignment tool mounted inside an existing faceting machine mast. A translucent polycarbonate alignment body with four adjustable arms and knurled knobs holds a dop assembly, demonstrating compatibility with standard 6 mm jigs and quills in traditional faceting setups without modifying the machine.
  • Text reads “Ready to make yours?” A single purple faceted Alexandrite rests on a clean white background with strong negative space. The image represents the finished result achievable through precise stone alignment, symmetry control, and yield optimization with high value stones using the Gem Axis V3 alignment system and workflow.
  • Text reads “For the modern lapidary.” Close-up macro image of a brass faceting quiill holding a translucent polycarbonate dop tip. The printed surface texture is visible, highlighting a hybrid workflow that combines traditional brass tooling with 3D printed polycarbonate components for epoxy dopping and precision gemstone cutting.

Looking to level up your workspace? Slipped stones, epoxy drift, wasted carat weight — or a stone popping off mid-cut? Every gem cutter, whether faceting or cabbing, hits moments where control slips away. The Gem Axis V3 locks and realigns stones at the dop, so you start — and restart — every cut with precision. Engineered for those chasing yield and symmetry.

Digital file access, ingrained in our values: developing the tools and technology that lower accessibility barriers. 3D printing is changing the arts. It lowers the barrier between idea and execution and provides access to anyone, anywhere in the world, regardless of their social class.

The Catch?
– License terms –
You’re free to print as many as you want. Tune them. Modify them. Make one for your friend who’s just learning. But no selling or redistribution of files.

After all…

Every order supports Aetherium Innovations and our mission to develop tools and technologies that lower the barriers in the skilled art trades.
Proudly designed in the Pacific Northwest, USA.
For the Modern Lapidary.
