Description:
The Covington Three Head Sphere Machine is a precision lapidary tool manufactured by Covington Engineering, designed for professional and advanced hobbyist stone cutting and shaping. This machine features three independently spring-loaded heads that work simultaneously, each capable of rapid adjustment via large spin handles. The unit is equipped with an integrated water supply system and automatic grit dispenser mounted directly on the machine, allowing for continuous operation with a fresh supply of both water and cutting grit. The machine comes complete with one grit catch pan, comprehensive instructions, a product guarantee, and your choice of one set of three cutter cups. The 220-volt electric motor provides consistent power for demanding lapidary work.
How it is used:
- Create spheres ranging from 2-1/2" to 10" in diameter with precision and consistency
- Use the three independently operating heads to cut multiple stones simultaneously or focus on a single piece with multiple cutting surfaces
- Adjust cup sizes using the interchangeable cutter cups, available in 1", 1-3/8", 2-3/8", 3-3/8", or 4-3/8" diameters
- Maintain optimal cutting conditions with the built-in water supply and automatic grit dispenser, eliminating the need for manual water and grit application
- Position stones against the spring-loaded cups, which automatically maintain consistent pressure throughout the cutting process
