Gem cutting !!!

Hmm. After 4 cuts you should be able to obtain Oval, etc. When you say "get", does that mean the options that come up on the gem cutting machine menu? I assume so. I've not really had this problem, sorry for being a bit useless, I've tried looking on the internet and not been able to find much...

I have a question. What is the purpose of the gem dust?

It's better to use gem dust than gems when creating elixirs. Sell your actual gems and make money! ;)

@Anmirla Thanks!! Nice avy btw :)

Thanks! She is a Vampire Wars character that I had a few years ago. I love her and she is my goal to recreate in TS4 when I finally buy it (and get a little CC stashed away)! >:)

It took more than just cutting 4 gems to unlock the next cut for me, it seems to take a bit longer that way than paying for the cuts. Not sure if there's anything to support that but it just seems like that's the way it is..Like I don't think I unlocked the next until I cut 10 or so gems!

With each cut you unlock, it takes more cuts to unlock the next cut. It's like skilling - it takes longer to make it to the next level. ;)

I've never paid attention to exactly how many cuts it takes to get more, but every sim I've had just keep cutting gems eventually gets all the cuts.

I love the gem cutter. It gets more money and it may give you lots of money. I got 50,00 from it because I sold gems and other stuff like painting and smelt things.

Gem cutter is one of my favorite TS3 objects.
