I am planning a trip to Chandler in March. Are there any good rock shop in the area. I would like to purchase rough material to take home.

I have changed my Lortone blade to the BD303 with great cuts. I have alson installed a diamond wheel and new rubber expanding drum. The lortone drums are just too much work.

I make sure everything is clean, clean clean. Bails and Stones must be all cleaned with alcohol and I use a diamond file on some of the bails to give the glue a good bite.
I have been very lucky with using Beacon 527 glue.

Been looking at this site for some time and have joined. Great information and pictures.
I cut and polish alot of rock and do make jewelry.
I live in Saskatchewan Canada and have access to a lot of jaspers and agates.
I do like to trade stones (Jasper/Agate/Pet Wood) so maybe I can find some traders.
