If you are interested in the diamond business, now is your chance to get involved. However, some pocket money must be found.
The Chinese online store Alibaba sells a device suitable for making diamonds to those who want it. The price is not cheap.
The diamond manufacturing machine costs 181,000 euros. According to Ars Technica, the machine reflects a trend that on has been going on for decades – the manufacture of diamonds is in the hands of more and more people.

The manufacturing of diamonds is still not completely done. The machine alone is not enough, because it needs expertise and high-quality graphite to manufacture diamonds. In addition, at least metal catalysts such as iron or cobalt are needed. You still need your own control systems to monitor temperature and pressure.
The first successful synthesis of diamonds in the laboratory took place in the 1950s. General Electric chemist Howard Tracy Hall created the first lab-grown diamonds using a high-pressure, high-temperature (HPHT) process that mimicked the conditions under which diamonds form in nature.
