Automatic Cabochon Machine
Automatic Cabber
This is the handy Tagit "Cabber", an automatic cabochon-making machine. Once you mount it and set it up, you can make cabochons very quickly. I like to shape them on a 100-mesh diamond grinding wheel, then put a batch into the vibratory tumbler with 33% ceramic shapes and 220 grit Silicone Carbide powder, then 600 grit + shapes, then some Cerium Oxide polish powder + shapes. A very quick way to make a batch of two dozen agate cabochons! This unit comes complete with plenty of quick-change tape, and 6 different sizes of cabochon templates, both of which can be reordered as needed.
Price: $45.00
When you run out of the tape which came with your Tagit Cabber, here's what you order. This is one roll of double sided tape to keep your stone fastened to the template.
Price: $4.00
This is a full set of six cabber templates, the same ones which came with your Cabber. They last a long time if you are careful with your setups, but you can mess them up in 10-minutes if you don't pay attention. It's a "pay me now" or "pay me later" situation!
