DEF

Débrutage [possiblement] final après la mise en croix et en huit.

CONT

On comprend [...] qu'il soit nécessaire d'insister auprès de l'ouvrier pour qu'il tente de réduire le plus possible cette perte, d'autant plus qu'il faut parfois lui redonner cette pierre pour un complément de débrutage.

OBS

Le diamant est débruté une seconde fois, dans le but de le rendre parfaitement rond et d'éliminer les petites cavités sur le rondiste.
