Cutting a Massive Gemstone Over 1000 Carats! How I Facet This Jumbo Quartz

I bought an assortment of new topper laps in different grit sizes just for working on this stone. The massive quartz wore a few of them out. I just bought some cheap ones on amazon that worked with my machine. Topper laps don’t cut as true to angle as solid laps, but they are a cheap alternative:
