Tired of slipped stones, epoxy drift, lost alignment, wasted carat weight, or having to reset a stone after it pops off mid-cut?

The Gem Axis V3 is a precision dop alignment tool designed for faceters who need better control over stone positioning before the first cut, during transfer, or when re-dopping after a failure.

By supporting controlled adjustment around the dop axis, the Gem Axis helps you center and realign your stone before committing material to the lap.

Engineered for cutters focused on yield, symmetry, and repeatability, V3 introduces a more refined adjustment system:

• Fine-thread M3 micro-adjust screws for precise centering
• Knurled adjustment knobs for improved grip and tactile control
• TPU bushings that create a non-stick barrier between the adjustment screws and epoxy
• Polycarbonate construction for durability and rigidity
• Heat-set threaded inserts for reliable repeated adjustment

Built to give experienced faceters finer control while remaining approachable for cutters still developing their setup and transfer workflow.

For the price and quality these can't be beat. This item or the transfer jig. The seller even messaged me about a small issue I was having.
