minus-squareDharma Curious@startrek.websitelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up67·1 year agoWhere do I find these dime sized rubies for 20 bucks?
minus-squaregravitas_deficiency@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up33·1 year agoRight? A dime is a touch over 18mm, and prices I’ve been able to nail down on a couple sites for artificial rubies of that size, while way less than terrestrial rubies, cannot be considered ”cheap” - we’re still talking thousands of dollars.
minus-squareJohnDClay@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up23·1 year agoMaybe they mean ruby infused grinding wheels? https://www.travers.com/product/radiac-ruby-surface-grinding-wheels-71150 Or maybe they were exaggerating a little bit and thinking about ruby bearings. https://www.renishaw.com/shop/Product.aspx?Product=A-5000-3611
minus-squarebooly@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·1 year agoA million f[beep]ing diamonds!
minus-squarewahming@monyet.cclinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up7·1 year agoYeah, if anybody finds these cheap rubies do let me know, I’d love to buy them
minus-squareEvilsmiley@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·1 year agoI’ve seen youtubers that bought reject sapphire from the f-35 cockpits that had some minor flaw in some place that disqualified it. I think you can buy reject batches of artificial ruby for indilustrial applications too.
minus-squareEvilsmiley@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·1 year agohttps://cascadejewels.com/ I searched lab grown rubies and these guys seem to be pricing near to that cost. They seem legit from a cursory search but i haven’t looked that deep.
minus-squareDharma Curious@startrek.websitelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·1 year agoThat’s awesome, thank you!
