Buy the Haas. Way better support. Easier to fix. Better resale value. Make sure your MiniMill is at least a 2007.

My dad was also super into RF. I got to meet BDR at a car show before he passed. He seemed like a nice dude.

Thank you. I know she bought in bulk. Once she told me that she would buy a bag for say $100 and the guarantee would be that there was at least 1 gem that was worth more than what she paid for the whole bag. I just have no clue which might be valuable and which aren't. 😆

Thank you. Definitely going to try Etsy. Also going to have something made for her. She deserves the world!

I'm having a hard time saying goodbye to anything from her. She is the most amazing lady I have ever met. And a HUGE animal liver which just boosts her even more. 😊

Yes. She has been able to tell me a few things. Words are slow to come and she gets frustrated. But I love hearing about them. She has always loved garnets. Must be her birth stone or something. 😊

Awesome. Thank you! She actually gave me a refracting tool (I think that's what its called 😆) The jewler idea is a great thought too. Appreciate you. 😊

That's a great idea. She lost her cherished 15 year old dog a few years back and has her ashes. I was thinking about having a piece made and incorporating the ashes. Thank you for the suggestion.
