Gidday Tom, personally when partially cleaning a stone for sale but leaving ragged points around the outside, I wouldn't do because the first thing the new owner is going to do is round them off. I know it makes bigger weight left rough, but less risk, ask more $. That was a good parcel buy mate, I'm jealous, cheers, nice to watch. Paul BB FNQLD

[@AusOpal]

Hey Paul I hear you it makes sense thank you for watching and time to make a comment :) I was just editing my new vid and your comment came up hence the fast reply

Nice NICE parcel of rough Tom ! That is super exciting, I am truly happy for you. You’ve got an awesome heart sir. I’ve had a delay in acquiring my own cabbing machine, it’s been put on hold for now, but I still plan on learning how to cut opal. Hopefully by then we will be able to do a little business together ? Keep on keeping on Tom ! Can’t wait for the next episode !

[@AusOpal]

thank you Michael I am very very surprised with this parcel how good it is, much of it sold already including that stone on the thumbnail . I am looking forward to you cutting and doing business together for sure :)

[@AusOpal]

Hi Michael you not entering the giveaways ? just making sure as i am about to do them.

Joyeux anniversaire !! Quelle bonne idée ces cadeaux ! Je participe donc. Pour le premier je dirais : gritt 180 et 1.5 oz pour le superbe brut de Lambina. Pour le second je dirais: 178 carats pour le colis et 156 carats pour les chips, soit un total de 334 carats. Bravo pour votre chaine que j'aime et aussi pour votre diction compréhensible pour un francophone comme moi ! Au plaisir du prochain post.

[@AusOpal]

Happy birthday to your channel Tom. Been entertaining following your channel since I stumbled across it 🙂 My guess at the total weight is 385 carats. Pretty sure your favourite piece weighs 2.5 oz and I’m assuming you used your favourite 600 wheel.
