Regular Dopping Tool

Guiu Dopping Tool
(This works with about any regular transfer fixture)

This is a tool that most faceters should have, particularity if they cut expensive rough like Sapphires (and other small rough) that are not generally available large.

Most people find small rough more difficult to line up and dop, this tool eliminates the problems.

This tool lines up and holds your rough centered during the dopping process for perfect alignment of the rough to maximize the yield.

 

Emerald Dopping Tool

This tool will help you recover the maximum amount of carat weight that you can get from a piece of rough. This tool fits into your transfer fixture and you dop, very similar to how you would transfer a stone normally.

This is ideal for glue dopping because it will hold your stone in position (over night) as you let your epoxy or glue harden.

Note: I only really recommend the large dopper, it will do every thing for not a lot more money.


Large or Emereald (large) - Price $159.95
(inside diameter is 23mm)
