Glen Spencer -- Master Sphere Cutter and
Lapidary
Glen Spencer’s fondness for rocks and lapidary began during a 1960 visit with family in Eugene, Oregon. Glen’s brother Orville, an avid rock collector himself, introduced the future sphere cutter to the intriguing world of rocks, gems, and minerals, taking him to local lapidary shops where Glen was impressed by the precision and natural beauty of the polished stones.
Drawing on his knowledge of mechanical and electrical systems and his keen sense of observation, Glen built his own sphere-cutting machines and perfected his techniques. His spheres are almost perfectly round, within one one-thousandth of an inch.
