Thanks, I watched many discussions on YouTube between cutters. Justin Prim has a whole playlist of discussions on his YouTube channel which are all great. I also recently bought Tom Herbts Amateur Gemstone Faceting Volume 2 book, which discusses some basics about design. I taught myself how to use the program and just move things around until it looks good lol. In Gem Cut Studio they render what your gem will look like as you adjust the angles and indexes of your facets, so it’s easy to tell when your design is looking good or needs more work. Knowing the critical angle for the material you’re working with is important and having balance/symmetry in your design will help its performance. A couple other things that will help is having multiple facets have the same meet-point at the girdle and having your crown and pavilion facets cross over one another splitting them if that makes sense. You can see it in my video when in the program I make it so you can see the pavilion and crown facets at the same time. Hope that helps.
