Thank you Jared! Such a pleasure meeting you and so happy to hear you are enjoying your Slab Master. We appreciate the kind words and your feedback so much!

How much did it cost?

Thank you so much! And we love your channel. You do such a good job. Come see the saw in action at the 22nd Street Show in Tucson if you get the chance to come out.

Thank you! A fist sized Agate will take about 30 hours, and require numerous blade changes. Tourmaline and Corundums cut faster than quartz on this machine. This saw is really designed for gem grade materials where saving a lot of material is most important.

Very cool! Feel free to shoot us message to showofflighting@gmail.com I'd love to show you some more pictures, specs and we might be able to work out a special price when you guys are ready!

Hey there! We don't have a link yet. Shoot me an email at showofflighting@gmail.com to place a pre-order! This video is an introduction to this new product that's not quite available yet!

​@showofftradeshowlighting1324 what is the price?

Hello! Thank you for reaching out! I am completely overwhelmed by responses to the Slab Master Saw. In response, I have created a new Facebook group. Please check it out and join! To answer your questions, diamond blades vary tremendously and are created for a wide variety of materials. We do not manufacture any of the diamond blades, as this is a science in itself. The blades we offer are generally designed for corundum, but will work on more than just rocks. Generally speaking, this machine utilizes 1M (1 Meter) of wire to string the saw. The blade life depends on the following: . Hardness of the sample . Size of the sample . Amount of weight on the bow We will be offering this as a complete kit which will include: 500M (Meters) of various sizes and grits of genuine diamond wire. Generally speaking, this will be enough wire to last a prolific cutter a year or more. We will be offering many options on the diamond wire going forward. These on average cost about 50 cents or less. This machine will be commercially available during Tucson 2024 (January). Please come and visit us at the 22nd Street Gem Show (if possible) to see a live demo and have the opportunity to purchase a full production unit. Its retail price will be $5,000 USD, as a complete kit. Most of the components are CNC machined in house in our North Carolina, USA facility. We will take deposits on a first come first serve basis, for units shipping in January. Typically, cutting turquoise with a hardness of 5 (the good stuff) the average diamond wire blade will last 10 to 20 hours. The same blades cutting a corundum (hardness 9) will last 2 to 5 hours. An average turquoise nugget 1" in diameter and a 5 in hardness will take less than 20 mins to cut. Remember, this is completely unattended and the machine automatically shuts itself off when completed. The slabs are perfect and have a nice pre-polished finish, even on Spider Web (very delicate) turquoise. You can even glue (3) 1" nuggets side by side, and cut 18 slabs, at one time, in less than 1 hour. This is a very flexible tool! Going forward, I need this community to share all they have learned about this new tool. If i may, i would like to post this comment and response to our brand new community forum. m.facebook.com/groups/319576267153465/?ref=share&mibextid=NSMWBT Sincerely, Jason Kelley Show Off Lighting LLC.

@@showofftradeshowlighting1324 thanks so much for your well thought out response I look forward to seeing you at the gem show!

I see I got a prompt answer. Saw this device at the Pow Wow in Quartzite Az. I still don't understand why anyone would buy one of these things. They have a very narrow application and cost well over $3000.
