June 21st is Fathers' Day - Get a DAD for DAD ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A DAD for DAD. What could be a more appropriate gift?
(All you Dads-don't be shy-let it be known to your family
that the DAD would make a very nice Fathers Day Gift).
Yes it fits your Ultra Tec no matter how old it is. Yes, you
will love it..

New Ultra Tec Representative -- Tomohiro Karino - Root of Power ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tomohiro Karino, based in Hiroshima, is our
representative for Japan West. Tomohiro does
beautiful work-see the photo. He placed first in the
Master division of the 2008 US Faceters Guild Single
Stone Competition, having received an exceptional
score of 99.82. In 2007, he was first in the PreMaster
division, and in 2006, second in the Novice division.

Another New Representative - Megan Kinman ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Megan Kinman became interested-in and learned
faceting in North Carolina She has fairly recently
moved cross country to Bellingham, Washington.
Megan creates custom jewelry, designs that
incorporate her own faceted stones, so she brings
"real world" experience to faceting and using the
gems. She's enthusiastic being Ultra Tec's new
representative in the area -- the Pacific Northwest
having traditionally been an area of high interest in
gem cutting.

Yet another new Rep -- Ron Snelling ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ron Snelling is Ultra Tec's representative in Denver,
Colorado. Ron has been active as an officer of the US
Faceters Guild, where he is currently Secretary, and
also with the Denver Gem and Mineral Guild, where he
is currently Treasurer. Ron was faceting teacher, and
obviously a "role model," for his son Chris, 16 years
old, who was featured in the January issue of Rock
and Gem magazine, where it told about Chris
performing faceting demonstrations at the 2008
Denver Gem and Mineral Show.
