Its sad, because the event is so popular. For any traders who have already paid for their stalls we are happy to refund your fees if you wish. Otherwise they will be forwarded to next year 2021. ... Please contact us if you want the refund. Contact details on the website Gemfest page http://nambourlapidaryclub.com.au See more

02.01.2022 Recent back issues have prevented me from cutting cabochons. So I’ve decided this is the perfect time to start polishing slabs. I would love a 1 meter reciproca...ting flat lap but it’s not in my budget. A 16 vibra lap caught my eye. I have no experience with these machines so any advice or recommendations would be greatly appreciated. See more
