[QUOTE="Heatho, post: 49890, member: 487"] Cheers Varts, had an awesome time again, had a go of the water cannon at the washplant, even got paid a Sapphire for my 10 mins work, a nice Inverell Sky Blue. :D Can't say enough great things about the owners also, top people. Alex hard at work at the wash plant.

They were mining a different part of the property this time, there are a lot of bombs but quite a few cutters also, some of the not so clear ones could probably be heat treated and turn out great, met a bloke there who cuts stones and does heat treating, will hopefully chat with him more next time I'm up there. Had a great time, drank with some locals and made some new friends, top few days. Going to go night specking up there next time and see if any big ones pop up. Ha, also met El Rodeo and family at Billabong Blue, nice meeting you guys, great chatting with you.
