This is my 4th video of yours I've come to for advice or a tip. Or purely for entertainment. Safe to say you've earned my subscription.

Wow thank you Cliff. Your insights on irradiated quartz is great knowledge to share. That is a wonderful cut. I have seen that some folks here in the United states have used some brands of superglue and accelerators but I had not seen one actually used before and it looked like you gave that star bond a proper testing. I don't think I have seen in any of your videos a heavy hand like that. Thank you for all you do to share.

Glad you enjoyed the video Tam. I was a tad rough on the hand technique in this video as I really wanted to test out how good this glue was. I can say there is zero flex in this glue.

I liked the design. It worked out well. Some of these "Eye" designs can be problematic. Cheers

Another great video! 💎 I wonder if you might facet a California Tourmaline, any color. (Pink). Montana Sapphire, or a champagne topaz (Utah). Lake County Diamond (unique type of Quartz-very hard and sometimes comes in a quite rare (very) light lavender color. Just throwing some ideas out there, Mate. Love all your videos!💎 Thank you!

@VintageTimeGems 4 жыл бұрын

Thanks...I would love to facet some of the gems mentioned. Montana sapphire I would like to facet. I have some of the Lavender quartz and that will appear in one of my videos, and yes it is quite rare....Cheers

I thought the bonding was fast and had no flex. Better than the wax. But epoxy is still good. I would use this glue on small gems 6mm or under. New technology is great.

Hi Cliff. New to your channel and really enjoying your videos. Thanks heaps for the time and effort to put in to produce them. Just a quick question - do you know if there is an Australian distributor of the Starbond products? Cheers Wayne
