Sorry I'll miss you . I am going on the 16th. Surely someone will be there besides me.

I saw where it was noted that Tucson is geared more to faceting. Is there any good deals for facet rough in Q? I will be going for the first time in mid Jan. Any suggested facet rough vendors would be appreciated.

I am interested too but it seems that the question of price keeps getting avoided. Must be waiting to see what demand before setting price. Therefore I pass.

I needed one once. So I found a regular 1/2" left handed nut which is 1/2" thick then used my hacksaw and cut it in half. Then I hand two narrow ones.

I don't know, Scott. I do know that unfiltered light will damage you eyes. Even with filtered lights, it is best to wear protection.

Great report Scott. I had a blast. I do get excited when it comes to rockhounding! Yes John, there will be picks as soon as I get home. I must add that the men from the Fluorescent Mineral Society really went out of their way to help us have a good time. They were an encyclopedia of information. Willing to explain and identify all that we found. I hope to someday return the favor. "I wonder if they eat boudin or crawfish?"

Wow it was indeed our best show ever. While lots of clubs are struggling to keep interest up, our's is wide open. We have had 11 request to join our facebook page in just two days. Here is the link. Go check us out : www.facebook.com/groups/160411579989/Let me know what you think. Yes John, the fluorescent mineral display was our biggest attraction. I don't know how we will ever top this show next year! But we said the same thing last year.

Yes Barclay, I am hooked on the fluorescents. I saw a collection in New Orleans a couple months ago and it blew me away! I can't wait to take my newly bought portable light out at night and see everything glowing.

Thanks Barclay. I also was thinking of driving to the Princess Pat Mine. Have you ever been there?
