I'm a teenager who's very interested in the craft of diamond cutting. I wish to know more about it but have no idea where to start. can anyone point me in the right direction?

Here's a school in Florida. It's the only one I know of in the US but there are probably more. I've heard good things about these guys but I've never been there.

One of the best, if not the best books ever written on diamond-cutting is "The Art of Diamond Cutting" by Basil Watermeyer.

Do yourself a favor and get this book.
