These were cut in Jeff Graham's Mini Mint design. I love this color.

Tourmaline faceting rough parcel score

These average out at 4 carats each. I've had them awhile, but am just now ready to start cutting them.

How the heck do I drag the window around?

I cannot figure out how to drag this to a second monitor. I can resize it. I'm sure it's something I'm just missing, but help please.

SSC rules

I have no idea where someone got the ‘only show black and white from’.

Here’s the rules: 8.1 The practice of having outside expertise evaluate the condition of a stone during the cutting process is strictly forbidden in USFG faceting competitions.

8.2 If it becomes known that any cutter has had the stone evaluated by other cutters during the cutting process, i.e. with the stone still on the dop, then that stone will be automatically disqualified from the competition

None of that prohibits posting pics without soliciting advice.

I did u/ramenlord 's sous vide chashu. After slicing, I seared both sides well and topped it with a soy sauce glaze left over from making some cod a few days ago. Bok choy from the garden, homemade pickled onions, homemade chili oil, corn fresh from the cob and eggs that I should have cooked for 30-45 seconds less. Very delicious.
