- Place your grinder set it down in your workspace so it can start processing geodes.
- Add a conveyor belt run a belt from your geodes to the grinder to keep material moving.
- Feed in geodes load geodes into the grinder and let it begin polishing automatically.
Selling gems and understanding purity
