Does anyone else give Justin a thumbs up before the video starts?

Thanks for including everything in the video. Many of us are mesmerized by your skills, and it's never too much to watch. You took a nice sized, mediocre stone and turned it into 5 blazing gems. The transformation was amazing.

Does anybody else find Justin's videos calming and relaxing? Just got home from my dr exam so thought I'd watch something beautiful being created. They still don't know what the dark shadow is in my brain. More tests, more worries. Ah, well, I'm trying to stay positive 😃. It's such beautiful work that you create! 💖 thank you for sharing your talent!

Man, if I had over $12,000 I would have those turned into a set of earrings, ring, and two stone pendant! What an amazing set that would make! Thanks for sharing your talent with us and telling us more about Coober Pedy.

I think I said this once before, geting old. Those smaller gems are like a rock pool full of tropical fish, swimming one way and then the other. Truely ethereal ✨️.

I'm never disappointed with watching you cut and polish the Opals ! To see the Opals rough , watching you do magic bring the natural beauty out of it ! Love it thank you Justin for sharing this with me here in Kansas ! Take care , stay safe and healthy with whatever you and your crew maybe doing next !

This is my therapy and meditation and by god I miss it when you are not making very many videos. My favorite is large parcels of mostly black opal when you double your purchasing price or better. You are so positive and real. I’ve watched all the old ones three times, so thanks for the surprise! 🤗❤️🙏🏼

It’s always a good day when Justin rubs one out 🥳😂😂

Absolutely stunning!! I love listening to the sound of you working on the stones. It's so relaxing! I just wish I could afford to buy these beautiful opals!

I love that they're a matching set!! Absolutely gorgeous 😍

The vibrancy in this stone was wonderful! Beautiful job.

Justin, what a gift you are! Teacher, guide, your willingness to share your years of experience bespeaks a true generousity of spirit. To watch a jewel appear out of potch or rough through your skill is simply amazing. That you transformed one piece of gemmy materiel into several truly royal worthy opals is just amazing. True artisans like you are becoming more and more rare. May you live long and continue to chase down these shy and elusive Gueens of Gems, helping them shed their potchy coats to dance in the light and dazzle us with their beauty.

GORGEOUS set of opals and absolutely fantastic work per usual. Happy to see some more crystal opal 😍 Love Coober Pedy. Thank you for the mini pep talk too, it was kind of needed today 💖

Hello Brother, Excellent Workmanship… My Momma had gifted Me Her Mothers, about the size of a quarter, shape of oval with a crown cut on top… It had a gold Cross laid on it somehow incased with a gold pendant and chain… I was around 15, had with Me always… 35 or so years I had it… It’s been gone now around 15 years… I just realized the number sequence hmmm When You Said How Much These Stones Cost, My Heart Sank… It wasn’t the cost I thought then A Voice in My ear said, “It’s Alright Dear”… Thank You Sir For Your Love of Beauty allowing this Video… 🤗🦋✨🦋🤗

The man with the gifted hands! Thanks for the show Justin and Co. Great edit!!

What I am learning from you is that once a decision is made, proceed in that way; however, be willing to change if the situation is changed. I’m learning to let the past be past; no need to revisit it. Proceed on positively from where you happen to be. Thanks. Those have been useful concepts for me to entertain.

These were absolute stunners! The color is magnificent, and the brightness too. I get the same feeling over and over again every time I see a new opal. It never gets old.

Great work Justin 👍and your torch is a good invention you have made with your family mate.Harry👍

Remarkable what can be revealed by the right kind of cut. It really takes an expert. I remember in my childhood naivety peeling away layers of mica, that my older neighbor had brought me from Silver City, New Mexico, in a quest to find out what was inside. My neighbor was rather upset with me as he restacked all the flakes on top of each other and slapped them into my palm. I did make a discovery, just not the one I expected.

That'll keep the wolves from the door, Justin. Beautiful gems, cut by the hands of a master. Great video. Thanks for sharing, from the UK.

Love your videos. Look forward to when you drop videos nothing like watching a master craftsman

I just have to say the production quality you are putting into these little 15/20 minute clips is outstanding, from the different angled shots to the cutaways combined with an excellent soundtrack and informative lyrical narration , there are big budget productions that could learn a thing or two from you and your team, congratulations and a heartfelt well done from old south wales UK

Justin, I love the background info! It's a dream of mine to see Australia with all its wonders before I depart! As a scuba diver I want to see the great barrier reef before man destroys it, and would love to see the mines and shops. animals and everything the country has to offer. Love from the Eastern USA.😇❤️

Your work in cutting the opals is what really brings out their beauty, patterns, and play of color. You actually do make them seem to burst into beautiful colors and detail.

Watching you cut these beautiful stones never gets old. Every time I see the end results, I am amazed at your skill. Thanks for sharing.

Another beautiful cut Justin! Love watching these stones come to life. The joy of opal. Cheers Baydo

I just watched it through my email and am watching it again! I like watching everything too! thank you!

Stunning! Now I am going to reevaluate all my coober pedy stuff:))

Awesome display of talent and artistry!

G’day from Kentucky! My wife grew up in Australia and I bought her a beautiful opal ring for our anniversary. I love watching how you transform raw material into gems. Keep making these great videos.

That opal has such beautiful colours, I think it should be called rainbow opal. That one piece turned into lovely gems and was well worth the risk of cutting it. Thank you Justin

These are to die for! I just love that bursting lemon yellow color against the other colors...seriously makes my mouth water! I don't know how I missed this video for so long, but it may be one of my all time favorites. You are so gifted Justin. I couldn't afford to by the mud in the bottom of your cutting machine...but know that I do so appreciate your work. I think you should donate one of your outstanding gems to the Smithsonian Museum. Because all people should get to see your work and what a talent you have with Australian Lightening Ridge Opals...there is nothing to compare!

I see a pendant, bracelet, a ring, and a pair of earrings. A perfect set, all from the same stone!!

OMG Justin and Coober Pedy opal! I love the stuff, and you just cut some stunning stones. As we expect 😉

It's always a pleasure watching you make those gems come to life Justin, thanks!

As always, love watching you work and seeing what happens with the opals! Such beautiful stones from that one lovely lump of opal!

What a wonderful video. You unveiled the beauty of those stones. Maestro. Your words so struck. I just got a promotion yesterday in a job that I love. Working hard often puts you in the right place at the right time, so you can take advantage of luck when it appears. Thanks for the reminder to celebrate. 🎉💜💚💛

I've cut a fair bit of Coober Pedy now, and I have to say I love it. They rarely disapoint, rather better than I thought they would be. About clipping your videos, I'ld rather see even more, spesialy the shaping on the first wheel with dop stick. Very nice to see you cut something different and more unusual shapes lately 😊❤️ Cheers from Norway, Elin

Haven't watched in a while.Been busy on fishing charters. I was the one that always commented on your dad's cap. Another great video producing some nice gems my friend. As always...Stay safe and healthy.

As usual, beautiful pieces of art and wonder!

Beautiful stones and you made the best of them with the slicing. Thanks for sharing.

You created some gorgeous crystals! Thank you for sharing.

Thanks, for sharing Justin loved the video you absolutely transformed them gems. Love the Coober Pedy stuff.

Outstanding! Thanks Justin.

I’m glad you didn’t skip forward. These kinds of videos, the way you made it, are my favorite to watch. I love hearing about the history of the area, you talking about your dad, explaining how and why you’re doing what you’re doing with the opal

Loving the life advice man, really was hanging for another video

They are glowing!!! So pretty!

So love to watch the magic you create with your skills!

Great job. Nice strategic cuts on the original piece.

Marvellous vid. Great material 🙌

Fabulous camera work on this! It complements your artistry!

Beautiful isn't the word for these stones Justin. Great Job my friend.

That was mesmerising. Beautiful stones.

That is some beautiful crystal opals Justin. WOW.the colors & clarity are fantastic. You made another great decision in slicing & shape. I love black opal, but I never get enough of the crystal opal.

Beautiful work Justin as always. I liked the little history introduction about Cooper Peddy. Bravo! I'm a big fan!

Five beautiful gems 😅. You never disappoint. So glad I found your channel. Just wished I’d found it sooner. To all at BOD 🎉

Amazing work again as always keep up the good work, Justin, I love watching your videos. You are amazing at what you do. I watch some videos with you and it’s like I didn’t see anything in the stone and you worked your magic and came out with a beautiful gem. So thank you very much. Keep up the good work look forward to watching many many many more. God bless.

Justin, your editing skills are exponentially better than when I started watching about 1.5 years ago. Beautiful stones.

Brilliant job!!! Perfect stone to slice❤️ you inspire me I have a bowl of Australian opals to get to ! Crystal and some Black/ish the sound of your turners brought me back❤️

OMG, I have sooooo much Coober Pedy opal (and potential crystal opal) ready and waiting for me to cut and polish ... I can't wait to get started, especially after seeing this video. So inspiring, as always, Justin. Your blood's worth bottling. 🤩😍🤗👍👏

Such a beautiful stone. Love the blue and green together

that was beautiful! i love black opal but wow this one was gourgous!

Brilliant video! I learn something new every time I watch! Thank you!

Beautiful light looking gems.

Just awesome! So many beautiful opals out of one stone! Gorgeous work Justin! 👌❤️👌

Beautiful gems! Couldn’t resist adding one of them to my collection.

Justin I just loved this cutting of this opal. It just turned out beautiful

Mate I am glad you didn't speed it up cos watching the stones come to life is what I love and these are just incredible looking! Great video as usual.

Loved the music choice! Very relaxing. Beautiful gems as well!

Absolutely beautiful! I learn every time I watch you work. Thank you!

Truly magnificent gems! 😍

Thanks Justin, these turned out great!

Great job! I'm glad you made at least one pair. I enjoyed all your stories. Nice to hear about Coober Pedy history. Very interesting. Thank you.

Priceless wisdom at 7 minutes Justin, bless you mate. Namaste

Beautiful gems, Justin. Well done.

Beautiful stones. They would be gorgeous as a set.

Before I found your channel I thought I liked opal. With your guidance I have come to love opals and their amazing variety. Thank you.

Lovin the editing! Cheers!

Awesome video as always

Thank you for another amazing video.

Stunning gems brother.

Those are beautiful stones Justin! The brightness is amazing

I adore opal. Thankyou for this.

So beautiful!

Gorgeous color!

Fabulous once again!💜

ear rings, pendent and ring. I hope Ruth works her magic with these stones.

Now THAT was fantastic cutting, and a great example of why I am often mentally urging slicing rather then grinding when there are large stones with variable areas. You extracted a large amount of high value crystal opal from an assumed large white opal, and I bet you made a higher margin then usual from the purchased raw stone. Well done and beautiful, clever work!

Even though I know nothing about gemstones, I enjoy watching you work. I am a tattooist and a tattoo machine builder, so I can understand the patience and love you put in to each stone you cut. You, Sir, have a skill set that blows mine out of the water. Be well and thanks again for making these videos.

Justin your work and patience are unmatched it is wonderful to watch you work. I was just diagnosed with liver cancer, if it's terminal I am selling everything I own to fly down and fossick for opal in old mullock heaps and live out my days there.

The color reminds me of an impressionist painting, very beautiful. Nice cut job!

I just love your videos - they have a calmness and soothing effect on me, I really enjoy. I wish I can one day afford to buy a beautyful opal from Australia! Thanx :)

Beautiful set of stones and I like the improved style of video editing too.

Just listening to you, your knowledge, your skills. Your an amazing man at your craft. Thank you for sharing this with us 👍👍👍👍🥇🥇🥇🥇

love CP crystal opal!! typically all i can afford HA! beautiful play of color. thanks for sharing.

Talk about cutting the most out of your rough. These are stunning gems. Nice work Justin as always 😊

Amazing work as always Justin

Love these stones!

Beautiful work!

Stunning gems, Justin. Have a great day. Greetings from Dimboola.
