Gem Cutting Table
Source
This building becomes available after you have learned the Gem Cutting skill.
Cost
- 24 Cut Stone
- 14 White Sand
- 80 Boards
Built in a Compound. Uses 17x17 cells.
Upgrade with Fine Balance
Adds a balance to a gem cutting table, measuring a gem's weight.
Use
Allows cutting of Cuttable Gems into Cut Gems of various types.
Cutting gems consists of trying to cut a semi-randomly shaped gem into a specific pattern. There is no room for error and the final product must be 100% accurate. The gem is cut by rotating the gem on its X,Y, or Z axis as needed, and cutting it with 1 of 3 blades on the table. The blades, and the type of cut they apply, are shown in the image below.
Tip
There are a number of hotkeys that move the gem. The mouse must be at the junction of the gem and the table for the hotkeys to work.
