Very nice Justin! Keep bringing those gorgeous Gems into the world 🌎 🙂

just in time. got home from work and making a cup of coffee. thanks for the awesome video

Loved the first stone a lot. Got my beginners parcel yesterday! Can't believe it arrived overnight and the rough looks amazing! I can't wait to get going. Thanks so much Justin and Vicky. It's taken me over a year to get my hands on a parcel and I am sooo excited to finally see one in person 😁 PS. Amazing packaging! It's beyond on point.

Those Coober Pedy white opals are gorgeous. I get why Justin isn't super high on them, but those colors are amazing. It's like a wild, hippy, tie dye shirt in a stone. Absolutely gorgeous.

That red in that stone is awesome can’t wait to see them all!!!

Thank you guys, one of my favorite ways to forget about the Kaos of the day. Think I'll be able to get back on the wheels soon, you guys are such good folks, it gives me hope I'll be able still work on them, you guys brought a bit of happiness back in my life an yes I cheer when you bring a stones color bar to the surface, like Christmas

My favourite style of cutting video. Enough explanation to follow, and lots of gorgeous colour being revealed. Cheers!

This is best content... Soft spoken, relaxing, no music, no silly, just good cutting and pretty pieces, nice and long. Not that there anything wrong with other stuff. ^_^

Yay! Thank you for posting! 💜💜💜

I love how on the last stone, even though it was not your favorite type, you took such care to make it a lovely tear drop shape.

I have learned so much. I am amazed at how you can take such tiny bits of rough and make something stellar from them.

This is tense and soothing to watch at the same time 🌸

Good luck in Colorado! I love your channel, I have actually started cutting/polishing opal by hand as a hobby. Just working with common opal for now to learn the basics but I'm loving it. There's something about a rough stone becoming a pleasing smooth shape that never ceases to satisfy. I'm on the other side of America so I'll miss the show, but hopefully in the future!

Gorgeous gems you cut here Justin! I love to watch you work. Thank you for sharing your love of opal with us. Hope that you have a grand time here in the states at the show!

That first stone… it just shows you never know until you dive into it. Your talent Justin is phenomenal. Love watching you work. Thanks for sharing.

Having commentary over a previously recorded session works out the best because he can hear you crystal clear. We don’t get that live reaction but it doesn’t take away form the video. Still very enjoyable.

I dont know why I find this so fascinating, but ive been watching your videos for a few years now and it is always amazing to see what comes out of a shabby sandy rock.

Imagine getting paid to rub one out, take its top off and go in... winning. All jokes aside, amazing job thank you for sharing!

Always a pleasure,thank you.

Yeah, you are coming to my home town. I will be coming to the show for sure. Love the channel and all the Beautiful stone you create.

Oh how i love to watch you work Justin! I think you have the best work in the whole world and you bring out the often hidden beauty in what Mother Nature has allready created! Greetings to you all at BOD!

You did good. Beautifully cut! Thanks for sharing. 😷⚒

We await impatiently for your uploads in London :)

24:45 you can really see why black opals are so sought after- the striking contrast between color and darkness in that one black spot...I guess it's kinda like TVs 😄 where you want the highest contrast between lit and unlit pixels possible

I needed that, so soothing, can't wait for the polish, beautiful colors

It’s so incredible watching you turn these into fantastic gems. I love watching the colours come to life. Thank you 🍻

11:58 I think this is my favorite, crystal with all that color being flashed around and as you move it these occasional deep blue flashes. Love watching it.

I believe that my taste is changing. I'm beginning to really like all the color in the crystal opal!

My favorite show format, right to the stones.

Fantastic as ever Justin. Really enjoyed it thank you.

Watching you work in that first wonky opal was great! Every so often, I get something similar. Never knew what to do with them. Now I do. Grinding at an angle, brilliant!

I've been watching your videos for a year now. You are doing amazing job! Thanks for sharing.

Amazing Opals👍👍👍 and Outstanding work of art by Justin🤩🇦🇺🤩 And Thank You so much for sharing. I do appreciade it alot mate🍻

You did it again. A bit of rough transformed in fine jewels. Thanks for sharing. 😷⚒

That 1st one- aaaaannnnnnd BOOM!! it's an OVAL!! 😉 ha! (just kiddin' w ya!) I was giggling about watching that shape take place, in a GOOD WAY Justin!! Because- WHAT A GLORIOUS GEM!!! And I totally dig the oval shape! That color is AMAZING!!!!!!! You've got magic in those fingers my friend!!! I love that you took a chance! AND I loved watching you bring out the best in that stone!!! I think Flagstone might just be my favorite pattern! (My fav, until I see the next pattern that knocks my socks off!!) ❤💙💚💜❤💙💚💜❤💙💚💜

Another nice section with BOD, with beautiful gems as the results! Looking forward to the next! Till then, we'll be waiting...

LMAO 🤣, I see the beautiful pink light green purple... eyes melted 😍

I finalllllyyy got my Gemmaaaasttaaaa!!just need to set up the water gravity feed and hopefully I'll be cutting till I can't cut no more 😬 thanks for all the videos Justin 💗

Hey justin... That big stone... Strap it into a vise and use an angle grinder to get all of the rough off it... Instead of wearing out wheels... Actyally you can reverse that and strap the angle grinder into the vise to hold it and grind down all the rough with good control

It's just great to watch someone doing something that they are so good at..fascinating 👍 😊

Wow! I was kind of on the edge of my seat for that first gem...very nice! Shows your expertise and patience...maybe a bit of 'gem intuition' as well. Well done.

Love the Colors in Opal , So Bright , Thank you for Sharing With us Justin 🤓. SKK .

Beautiful.very satisfying to watch I must say! Have a wonderful time in Denver 🥰👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

The transformation is always unreal

Love to watch you work those stones.....Thanks Justin.....Shoe🇺🇸

I DID enjoy that! Thank You Very Much for bringing me along!! And- I hope you have a fantastic trip in good ol' Colorado!!! Unfortunately, I won't be seeing you there this time... Even tho I would LOVE to see "your dad's opal" in person, Texas is just too far away for a quick trip to the Rockies! Oh hey! I recently read the Aurora Borealis could temporarily be moving a tad South quite soon, (altho I don't know the dates of that happening...). I'm also not sure if you would be able to see it from Colorado? But maybe if you trek up to the top of a mountain one night it would be visable that way!! Wouldn't THAT be cool!!! It would be like watching opals dancing in the sky!!! So yeah! Maybe something for y'all to look into! Safe Travels everyone at BOD!! ❤️ 🛫✈️🛬 🌄 ❤️

Hi Justin, About "the Rock". I am doing agates and I use a wet grinder with 5 Inches diamond pads when I want to conserve the rock as it is removing only what i want. I start at grit 10 when there are lots of broken spots. It's coarse but it gets you quicker to the finer work. I guess you can start at grit 30 for opals. And you can get pads up to grit 5000 I think.

I’m so jealous! Come to the UK so I can watch you cut and learn from you!!

Simply love to watch you work, thanks for bringing beauty to the world, Aye!

G'day mate good to see you again

Great as always!!! Love your creativity

I get this a quick and easier video to create but would be lovely to see you finish and then value each stone

Personally I find the things that have these small flaws to em much more of a rare piece sense everything else is much more perfect those flaws just add character to the piece plus makes it more of a better conversation piece to

Hello from Chicagoland! Chasing that color bar! Love your work - look forward to your videos! I know specimens are more of a niche (some of us are just weird that way!), but I'd be interested in a show on specimens even if its just show-and-tell.

Take its top off and rub one out! Lol wow justin great choice of words 👏 🤣🤣🥰

Please take all necessary security precautions. Hope you have a great trip.

Excellent. I love the end results. 👍👍

Loved it Justin 👏👍🙂

Omg I watch you all the time I love your videos , I was at this show but I didn’t see you :((( come back soon please !!!

So excited to meet you! I live right here in the mile high city!! It's my birthday that week so I hope to find something magical. SEE YOU SOON... JOSHUA C.

❤️ I like the new "voice over" format.

Well done mate! Voiceovers were perfect and not too overbearing.

Wow the saturation on that potchy one is incredible, such powerful colors.

Beautiful Justin! Darn, Denver is still just a little to far for me to see you! Hope you have a great time there and sell lots!

Looking forward to this Justin.

I am from Egypt and I would really like to attend and your videos are great. I really thank you. If I do not attend, believe me, you will find me in your imagination

It's so satisfying to watch you polish the stones!

Lovely results enjoy the trip 👍

Seeing you sand it down makes me realize how very soft Opal really is….

Love your videos and gems. Big hug from Spain 🇪🇸

I love the last stone, I am fond of teardrop shaped opal.

You are the master, some super stones rubbed. Thank you 👍👍👍👍

Always enjoy watching you make the magic to the stones.

Oh how I wish my business had the extra money to go to the gem show. Hopefully next year!

Oh no Justin went in, taking its top off and rubbing one out - Stay safe

👀 😲 I see my ring in that second stone!!

There is never a disappointment watching you roughing opal!

Lovely set, with some great colour.

I think you're awesome I try to watch all of your videos I have enjoyed every one of them you're the best

I don't think it's have the courage to cut down to the second bar on that first stone. Gorgeous!

Have fun in Denver.

Hi Justin- Will be in Denver would love to connect and setup an appointment! So excited...

ok to me they are all gorgeous but if I had to pick one as the best it would be the second opal you cut that has the bright greens and blues that as you said was broader line dark crystal opal. that would be perfect set in a mans ring .

Maybe we can meet finally! Life can be funny when caring for mom...

0:53 you keep rubbing them out and I'll keep watching... Wait wait!

I love watching the way you approach each stone your a rockstar

Definitely trying to go. Would like to meet you and get one of those parcels off you too .. 😁 I got it in my calendar..

My eyes find anything that sparkles on the ground. I find lost jewelry.

Wanna know what drives me crazy? When you see these stones that have wicked color just on a small piece near the edge or something and they end up having to be ground off because of sand. You'll see wild pinks and magenta looking colors.

Jeez I got to go to sleep I have to put this dang phone down... it's 3am. 😱 No ooo.... I have a busy day today. To be continued for me No worries, I save everything you do

Justin, your videos are very interesting apparently you video cutting then voice over the commentary, it is very interesting when you know what is happening while you talk

Dude you did not just say rub one out. I just spit my beer out. some went through my nose. Really like your videos.

Hey Justin...I would love to see one of your sold stones in a setting as part of a piece of jewellery. Do you ever find out what happens to your stones once you sell them?

Love them all, even the white.

Does "rub one out" have the same meaning in Australia as the UK...?! 🤔🤣

Another beautiful stone love it

Ya know that big piece of opal would be cool to just see the ruff all knocked off it just to see what it looks like sorta polished like it is idk if it would be worth it to cut it all up into individual stones

The consummate gentleman you are Justin. Greetings from San Antonio Texas.

Hello Justin, I’ve recently started cutting opal (largely thanks to watching you for years). Can I ask where you get your nova wheels from? I can’t seem to find them. Keep up the great work.
