What is a good cabochon machine to start with? I found this one on Amazon, but not too sure if it is worth the money.

Adam You're probably going to need to spend even more... That one is ok but the ones with the vertical wheels are better, it's nice to just rinse off a rock and go to the next stage, and easier to go back when you find that scratch you missed. |

I have to agree with Tim. Spending a bit more on the vertical wheel would be your best bet. Not a cheap hobby but well worth it. You might also look into a small trim saw to prepare the pieces before working them on the cab machine.
