20100304034GALVANIZING BATH APPARATUS - A continuous galvanizing line uses a coating pot containing a molten zinc bath having bottom dross and further comprises a pump. The pump agitates the bottom dross so the bottom dross interacts with aluminum and converts to top dross, which can be removed without needing to stop the galvanizing line. A reaction vessel may also be used to provide a higher concentration of aluminum to react with the bottom dross.12-02-2010

20110265514METHOD OF CUTTING DIAMONDS - In a method of taking a star facet of a diamond and extending its length to the girdle (the outside perimeter) of the diamond, a shield style (obelisk-shaped) facet is produced in rounds and fancy cut diamonds, and on square and off squares it remains a three-sided facet but is made larger and longer. The facet becomes larger than it was previously. It becomes a five-sided facet when it was a three before (or a much larger three-sided facet on squares and off squares). The reason it becomes five-sided is because when the facet is extended it collides with the bezel and both upper girdle facets as it extends to the girdle on rounds and fancy cut diamonds. The new facet on square and off square becomes longer and larger but remains three-sided. When the new star facet of rounds, fancy, square and off square diamonds collide with the others it produces a new larger facet and makes an exchange of positions of the previous largest facet which is true of all rounds, fancy, square and off square. This new facet has a different angle from the previous largest facet. Because of the adjustment it appears a little different because the world is used to the standard cuts. The new cut produces new angles for the largest facet and produces a very appealing display of light performance.11-03-2011
