In continuation from last part, here is another picture of the diamond only looking from the pavilion/culet side.
As noticeable, the two small naturals (1&2) which we've been following throughout the story are now positioned in perfect spots on the girdle, where polishing them out by final shaping wouldn't hurt the actual facet junctions symmetry and/or slopes-azimuth which are all already completed in place and final!
All there is left to do as mentioned in the previous post (part VII) is to re-polish some of the girdle planes for
1. Polishing out the naturals and..
2. Perfect the cushion contour. And then the diamond is ready for final table polish to be fully completed.
