The Ultra Tek v5 - Excellent machine, the yanks don't do a bad job.
Like on the VJ I like the idea if the digital protractor will make any Gemcad designs to two decimal points easier and also a lot easier to repeat the angle. Nice choice. Happy cutting when it arrives. When it arrives will look forward to seeing your cut stones and the posts on how you are enjoying it.

G'day King Sol,

I've got an old Halls Junior that I use when touring in the van- It doesn't take up much room and runs on 12 volts. Works well in the bush where there's no power.
For competition stones I use a "Charlton competition" machine it was made by a SA machinist who was also a facetor the machine has tight tolerances and produces a good stone.
I also have a Gemmasta that is a nice easy fun machine to use. Also made here in SA.

The first machine I had was a jam-peg machine that my Dad made me when I was at High School got the instructions from a popular mechanics magazine.

Enjoy the Ultra Tek you'll get many hours of enjoyment from it.

Cheers
