That would be one far out last request, have your skeleton mounted in a case - holding your best cabochon against a grinding wheel! :D

[@rhondajones1313]

Man you had a blast there. Thanks for the video. Take it easy.

[@Diamondhunter555]

Very nice super beautiful ❤❤❤❤

[@TommyLee-hu5dy]

What kind of Opal is that @0:44 I have one. I heard it's called water opal, but not sure and how much are they worth?

[@lapidarydave]

Water opals are not worth a lot but they sure are fun

[@mrsboogybren2657]

Thank you for the great video. Do you remember the name of the vendor with the large chrome diopside beads, please?

[@phidiassourtzis3419]

Beautifull gem stones

I am enjoying this.

What was the rock @20:10 ?

[@lapidarydave]

@@MrGaryStaples blue moon stone

[@MrGaryStaples]

@@lapidarydavethanks! It’s on my list of rocks to get now

[@virginialemm864]

I totally agree…Holidome/Gem Mall really needs to be a longer show. Each year, we are there in Tucson for 11 days, and it is so hard scheduling each of your days, knocking-off the ones who end sooner. Geeze! Our trip here in 2024 was cut VERY short (3 days), with our daughter being hospitalized with lung blood clots back home in CA. We nearly lost her, just 40 years old with three children. Anyway, so looking forward for 2025. This was another great video, Dave.(BTW…is there address or phone number for messaging you? I am having a difficult time drilling with my Dremel. Would like your expertise help!)

I’m not sure send another photo of you can brother I’ve been crazy busy

[@canadiangemstones7636]

43:36 - Apophyllite is actually a group of six minerals, none of which are zeolites. Apophyllite can be faceted, but it’s perfect cleavage makes it extremely difficult to cut; truly a collector stone.

[@lapidarydave]

Great info

[@lapidarydave]

A garnet ? No I did not

[@rhondajones1313]

Well bummer man I have the money right here. Well I am looking for some garnets that I can facet down.@@lapidarydave

[@canadiangemstones7636]

@@rhondajones1313Well, it’s not like garnet rough is hard to find...

[@rhondajones1313]

@@canadiangemstones7636 Someone that I trust not to screw me yes it is. Who do you recommend.

[@koskey06]

I want to give you be like $100 or so to just send me some cool stuff you find at shows. Me living on the east coast I don't get to see these things. So what would be fair for you to spend $100 for me? I pay you a extra $50 for doing it or what?

[@lapidarydave]

Sure text me 7722844459
