or Faceters Guild of America
you can definitely get facetting diagrams from the websites
and there are many books on facetting including the basics
from John Sinkankas from his books on gem cutting and facetting.
He was one of the premier cutters of many of the large stones found in
museums around North America, including the Royal Ontario, and The Smithsonian
you might also want to google

If all the indexes in the instructions divided by 3 and multiplied by 2 results whole numbers then your 64 index will facet a 94 diagram. This greatly increases the number of cuts you can do.
Likewise if all the indexes in the instructions divided by 4 and multiplied by 3 results in whole numbers then your 60 index will facet a 80 diagram. I also have 64 and 60, but also a 96 index gear.
Designers tend to specify 96 or 80 indexes without noting that the designs can also be cut with other gears. Vargas and Soucup have index conversion diagrams in their books, but it is really simple arithmatic.

If you go here there are about 20 designs for 64 Index, just change it to 64 from the drop down box:
