i have had this nobbie opal for a while and the time has come to cut it. I am going to my gem club next week and hope to get some good advice. I just hope I can get a nice stone from it. Bill

Beautiful piece! From your other work I really don't think you need advice, but I know how nerve wracking cutting a good Opal can be, I've got many pieces laying around waiting for me to stop thinking about cutting them and get started Dr Joe .

That looks really promising! Can't wait to see the results! Don't you folks down under just have piles of opals in your yards? Or do they all get exported? Chuck

That one is a beauty and I would be terrified to touch it! I bet, from what I have seen you do, it will be amazing! Good luck! Fran
