My Second Best Video Ever: The Lost Australian Opal - FOUND!

[@moeknoop8385]

Boy, say grinding around Shela and she gets on it. Thanks for the video. very nice work on the arrowhead. Keep them coming

[@bencook8528]

Once again you kept Sheila, the cats, and the viewers happy. The commentary is the most entertainment contained in the video. The beautiful opal “bull” lives up to its name.

[@Mrturbocorona]

Hands down the most entertaining yet informational opal videos on the platform

[@MrXxz368]

So far I'll have to agree, especially the entertaining part!

[@redeyestones3738]

Definitely for Opal related entertainment value, Pulitzer opal is the top dog, for sure. And always good info. He's in my list of top top 5 favorite channels. Him, Phil at @theopalmills who does virtually EVERYTING involved in the processes of the opal trade, from mining, to jewelry. and Roy at @roysrocks are also in that category, because of the educational value, and of course Justin at @blackopaldirect he always has some incredible material, and also provides great info. Then there's Jaymin, Noah, and JC, from @younggunsopalhunters who show a pretty fun side of opal mining. (Although it would be really cool to see daily content from them! 😆)

[@eddiekytia]

THE CHANNEL THAT MAKES OPAL FUN..... THANK YOU SO MUCH!

[@oldtimetinkering74]

Well you did it this time! I previously blamed you for getting my daughter interested in precious stones (she's 11). She finally convinced me to get us a Cab King 6. It just showed up. I don't know if I should say thank you or tell you off lol. It's nice to see her getting into a rewarding hobby that will lead us out into desert rock hounding more. Keep the great videos coming.

[@donaldchavez976]

Hello from Albuquerque, great video, love the cat's and love the dog.

[@miltonbuckman3109]

Always funny. Thank you.

[@JohnP538]

Talent, skill and a sense of humor, that's why I watch. Keep on cutting.

[@chrismatthews8075]

Wow ,I am not showing the wife this video so as not to go into debt. Amazing finished pieces. Thank you the show and no cats were harmed in the making of this episode.

[@elund408]

After a trip to the Oregon coast we came home and my dog wasn't doing well, the vet said she had an obstruction, He removed a large Agate from inside her insides so while cats may not eat opal, keep them away from your dog.

[@lianerogers2665]

You're right. lol

[@dawnthomas1228]

Thank you for sharing. I never knew an opal could be upside down. I have an opal about 10 cts that I need to be set in a piece of jewelry. I will definitely take a second look at it now to make sure it's set right.

[@laurenoreilly4140]

When you flipped your wife’s pendant, it made such a beautiful, big improvement in the color! I love the arrowheads you make and Codohse is no exception! You have such a gift with opals!

[@captcraig777]

You are the only reason I ever got interested in Opal. That's because I had never seen them before. Thank you for sharing your experience !!!

[@darthnails7855]

This is my favorite lapidary channels to watch on KZbin. Watching the colonel grinding & polishing got me interested in making cabochons.

[@kalebmiles7446]

Remind me to check your sock drawer if I ever come by. Haha. Nice color in that stuff!

I just can't get enough of your videos! I'm always entertained!

Glad to see Sheila and the cats are doing great. and of course yourself as well. awesome opal as always! Hellooo Clarice

[@smokeeater8387]

I never ever get tired of seeing you make an arrowhead. Not to mention it’s just good to see an arrowhead. I’ve been out probably ten times over the past couple of months and have struck out every time. Great work brother👍🇺🇸

[@smokeeater8387]

@@PulitzerOpal My dry spell broke the other day when I was planting flowers for my mom. It’s a small one with a busted off ear but beggars can’t be choosers. And I’m headed out tomorrow to look. We had a pretty good rain the other day so I might get lucky. The Natives in Missouri were blessed with an abundance of chert and flint. I should make a short video of a couple of hillsides on our farm during the winter. Hillside is covered with it, although it’s been exposed for who knows how long and mostly freeze cracked👍🇺🇸

Neither does Shelia...keep grinding Shelia that's how to keep your figure as you grow older. Glad to meet you Clarice do be careful who you hang out with though the Colonel can be a bit on the fistyside once in awhile.

I was disappointed to see the cat didn't eat the opal because that is how I read the title. Reminds me of a movie which I can't think of the name.
