- At 90° cut the side and end pairs to make L/W. Then cut the other four girdles at 90° to achieve g2/W by measurement.
- Breakpoint Method:
a. Cut pavilion set 1, 2 & 3 to PCP.
b. Cut four facets at 90°, end indices, to size stone.
c. Chain-cut break facets, starting as shown, to meetpoints as you go.
d. Chain-cut girdles at 90°, starting next to the ends, to make a level girdle line.
