Four Corners Gem & Mineral Show 2022 part2

[@scottlemurianboxer]

I like the gem and mineral show videos the best and love the long format.

[@kathleentuck278]

Awesome show, and love your broadcast! Your personality is wonderful. Thanks for all the great commentary. I had to sell my Jooltool six years ago. It was the original and never used. Now I just collect and buy beads to make jewelry. So excited to follow you and the folks you introduced today. Great job, my new lapidary friend!

[@lapidarydave]

Thank you so much for watching Kathleen it means a lot to me :)

[@CindysGems]

-The huge turquoise family booth had fantastic stuff. -Armando & sons is amazing. Incredible wire wrapping.

[@genewilliams6966]

Keep it up Dave. I love your show tours. Learn about material I never heard of before.

[@jakeexotic9818]

Inspiring and educational content as usual! Your knowledge and that of the vendors is top notch. Thank you, keep up the great work!

[@lapidarydave]

thanks my friend

[@buckeyeusafveteran4706]

thanks for sharing, i cant remember if it was this video or another (i had a lapidary dave binge yesterday) but armando was talking about the larimar and the dificulties cutting it. Glad i saw that part as i got a slab from my trip to republica dominicana that i've been planning on cutting with the trim saw but now i think i might hold off. That stuff is precious to me as i haven't found a source online for good rough and who knows when i'm going to be able to afford to go back. Thanks for the education and helping me along my lapidary journey. Pura Vida! Jake

[@jeffreyenglert697]

It would be nice to hear what the vendors say. Other than that, your videos are excellent. Ty

[@Lilabsolue]

Turquoise really makes me craaaaazy! I love a lot of stones, but I'm definitely a Turquoise girl 🥰!

[@lapidarydave]

i agree it’s my favorite

[@adriantorres3221]

I am so glad I found this channel! So many beautiful stones and minerals. I wish I could go to one of those shows maybe I will be able to do some here. But I’m sure I get broke just going there let alone in the venue. That turquoise is just jaw-dropping and that piece of fire I get from that vendor was amazing. I love fire agate my favorite stone. I’ve been a germ collector since I was a kid now I’m almost 50 my collections really small down because I gave a lot of pieces away through the years, but I’m thinking about building it up at again, so going to one of these gym shows would be amazing. Gotta find some in Pennsylvania.

[@candyontherag8248]

Your awesome Dave ! At the end of the day it has to be very rewarding knowing that you have helped so many vendors out..keep up the videos coming because I wil definitely keep on watching and enjoying them....thanks for sharing.....WHAT ! WHOO HOOO FROM CALIFORNIA !!!!!!

[@lapidarydave]

I think you so much candice I really appreciate your kindness. I’m getting there. I still get yelled at least a couple times my vendors had every show this one was definitely one of them. I think I even kept it in the video.

[@CindysGems]

The “Weeping rock jewelry” is fantastic.

Hiya Dave, Shame we can't hear most of the vendor's comments, at all! Steve...

[@diversegardener392]

I love how you support others and pass them to others. You deserve an award. Can you tell me of any shows in San Antonio ever?

i’m so down

[@rickcrippen5180]

Metal tape and solder is used with stained glass.

[@Gems-of-Hope-Rocks]

That's good to know. I had heard about that also but, did not remember at all what the technique was used for.

[@oxygenman76]

What do you think the hole size with the agate pendent

[@lapidarydave]

i’m sorry I don’t quite understand your question are you asking me what should a whole size be for a agate necklace or are you talking about a whole size in this video in particular?

[@hellboundrubber4448]

I'm dyin to see this Outback Opal Hunter incident but can't find this vid? Did you remove it?

[@lapidarydave]

I took it down shortly after it happened I thought even though it would’ve been a great video for me probably with hundreds of thousands of views if not at least 1 million it’s just a bad way to get that type of attention I found out later that the dude was kind of just that way with everyone and it was more or less me not being willing to turn off my camera this year in Tucson 2023. I found out that the guy sprayed some young ladies white shirt down with a spray bottle and in one form or another is a little bit unhinged. I don’t take what he did at all I’m not mad I’m not upset. In fact I feel super bad for the guy, he went a super large booth literally one of the smallest booth at the 22nd St., showplace I think it was just one glass table anyway I might do a screening of the video some other time during a live video if anyone asks during a live but I don’t share the video casually since I think it’s just a little inappropriate definitely on his part but if I went around joking about it then on my part two

[@hellboundrubber4448]

@@lapidarydave I wanted to know who it was cause i love that show! It's not that big of a deal so i think you made the right choice. Old Native saying, Good Wolf or Bad? The one that wins is the one u feed the most. My fav is, "if u can't take it with you, then you'll just have to leave it behind". I love your vids so much. I Google all the things u talk about. Trails of knowledge that blow my mind. The Gem Rock history in your part of the U.S. is so exciting. Being in Toronto Canada, seeing your vids is like a small town kid going to the Big City. You're a Legend to me already. Next year i hope to have a Vending Table. I'm taking your advice about making Gem stone glasses. Saw a Swarovski Ad w a pair. Oh yeah. I'm on it. Went to my first Gem Show last month. So much fun. Thanx Dave.

If the cost is $2/ct, x5 would give u the cost of 1g? So a 1g stone would be $10?

Yep
