OMNI E 8" Faceting Machine Dial IndicatorNEW - OMNIe Dial Indicator

Brand new as of March 2008 the OMNIe is now available with a German made dial indicator.

This dial indicator helps control cutting depth and actually is a good idea for most beginning cutters because it will help people that are just learning cut to even levels on all sides of their stone.

Note: For those of you who know me I am not generally a big fan of dials and gauges. But because we are having so many beginners that have never cut on a faceting machine before... and some newbies are having difficulties cutting evenly, I have concluded that a dial indicator is a good item to have any any new cutters machine. So I do now recommend a dial indicator if the cost is not a big factor for a new person in the faceting hobby.

This upgrade is available on all new OMNIe's.

This dial indicator upgrade is also available as an easy to install kit for anybody that already has an OMNIe and want to put the dial indicator on their machine.

The 6" OMNI is probably one of the smallest, if not the smallest faceting machines in over all size and foot print I have ever seen. The machine is very compact and for people that have limited work space the 6" OMNI would be an excellent choice. Because the OMNI is so compact, and fairly light (it is heavily built but not a large machine) it would make a good traveling machine for an RV or vacation home.
