Dave I like watching your evaluation and hearing the comments about the different stones even if it is from a year ago. I learn quite a bit every time I watch stuff.

[@lapidarydave]

Love seeing how it all starts out. Thanks for the tour. Hope you are safe in this time of virus.

[@lapidarydave]

Diane Green thank you so much for watching I really appreciate it I wish I would have made more rough walk and talk videos but I think this might be one of the only ones I will be posting of the Tucson show I am safe away but stuck in California at the moment with my grandmother at a very nice Hot Spring RV park and I am not afraid of the virus at all I would love to get back to Taos New Mexico and help my community though since I’m a little bit stuck and every day gets harder and harder for me to get back I think I’m just going to offer free guitar lessons online to help folks that are quarantining themselves

[@Midnight_Star_44]

Love every show. Keep it up!

[@lapidarydave]

Kristina Talaga thanks for watching

[@yankeetimeline]

Cool video! It's amazing that I can go to 10 different gem and mineral shows . And at least 3 of them will have the same material as the other but completely different names and locations! Tons of knowledge can be gathered at these events.

[@lapidarydave]

J S totally my friend it totally trips me out I should make a video on gemstones that have different names thank you so much for watching I really appreciate

[@CompetentSalesUSA]

[@mcgooglio3684]

That felt like a 3 minute video when it was over. Was surprised that it was over 20 when it ended. Thanks!!!

[@lapidarydave]

Mc Googlio My pleasure it’s totally an honor for you to watch it and enjoy it I plan on making a lot more rough talk and walk videos

[@partminepartmine5000]

Thank you so much for sharing.

[@EDLaw-wo5it]

Nice vid Dave. That moss agate you showed early on did not look like any I have seen. But then again I have not seen that much. Havagudun Dave.

[@lapidarydave]

E. D. Law LOL thank you for liking the agate by the time I film this video I was already there for nearly a month and I was totally desensitized to all of the material that I see day to day I wish that I would’ve bought in 10 times more than I bought at the Tucson show but that’s just the way it is I can never buy enough and even things that I thought looked casual look so much better now that they are so far away

[@EDLaw-wo5it]

Grass is greener lol.

[@Midnight_Star_44]

I'm from Michigan and your absolutely right but only uppers.

[@lapidarydave]

Kristina Talaga LOL I love people from Michigan I can’t wait to go myself I was planning a tour through there with a few of my vans but I’m pretty sure nothing is going to get booked for a while

[@Midnight_Star_44]

My god if you do please let us know really would love to meet you and feed off of your positivity

[@atomictentacles8513]

Did you ever find out about that lavender amethyst? I would love to get my hands on a chunk of that.

[@lapidarydave]

I suspect it is man-made there’s another material that’s very similar to it that begins with a G that one of my employers gave me a nice piece of but I think it’s different than what we are calling lavender Amethyst in this video

[@matthewg3374]

Chrysoprase gets its color from nickel not chrome. I want some chrome Chalcedony. I also loved how that Ocean Jasper had neat terminated crystals on the rough

[@lapidarydave]

Mattatron Millerite lol thanks for the info :) ocean jasper is awesome I would love to buy some slab it preform it and get some apprentices to polish it for me on silicon carbide machines

[@darrellcanhelp735]

thanks , good stuff

[@lapidarydave]

Totally my pleasure:) thanks for watching

[@iWitnessTeachings]

Super Lapidary Dave!

[@Midnight_Star_44]

Love your boots by the way.

[@lapidarydave]

Kristina Talaga LOL thank you so much I love them too I wore holes in them this year but there is a really good gentleman that Repairs boots in Taos New Mexico I will get all of my boots repaired when I get home after all of the world shenanigans are done

[@ElGatoLoco698]

Man I wish I could take advantage of some of those prices. I think my rock guy buys all his stuff there and sells it to me for $7 pound. At least, the more commonly available stones.

[@lapidarydave]

ElGatoLoco698 they are definitely great prices but they get even better during the Tucson show I would say this particular vendor is charging a higher mid range price wise but still great deals This particular vendor charge is almost twice as much during the Denver show I try asking him for the Tucson prices that I remember and they don’t really budge they just tell me to pick it up in Tucson

[@MrsOx-jz9fg]

What is the website for this gemstone usa??? Definitely looking to place am order with them

[@lapidarydave]

Mrs. Ox i’m not sure about the website I know they have one or at least Hormel your catalog but you can always call them at(877)533-7153

[@MrsOx-jz9fg]

@@lapidarydave oh awesome Dave thank you sooo much. I will definitely give them a call. Plus I have more binge watching to do of your channel. I'm a new sub

[@lapidarydave]

Mrs. Ox thank you so much fo watching I really appreciate you enjoying :) if you ever have any questions feel free to ask

[@MrsOx-jz9fg]

@@lapidarydave you are very welcome. Awe thank you very much I really appreciate that. I've collected stone's & crystals since I was a teenager but recently I've gotten into buying rough specimens so I'm extremely new and learning on how to clean them correctly and polish etc..

[@lapidarydave]

Mrs. Ox Do you have any machines? I am going to make her videos on how to convert a tile saw in to a flat lap so no need to buy $2000 worth of equipment one can easily cut shape and polished stones using a $35 used flat lap

[@Altafkhan-wi4pn]

I didn't see pink tourmaline

[@lapidarydave]

Altaf khan There was definitely a lot of pink tourmaline at the show I didn’t show any off in this video but I think there are some pink tourmaline’s from Brazil that I will be showing in the next video thank you so much for watching
