I think this is the bloke:

Email: qualitygemrough@gmail.comHe accepts MasterCard, Visa, EFTPOS and American Express.
If you do decide to buy off him let me know how you go. I've only bought synthetic's and small cheap stuff from him.

The above is from a PM I sent to another ALF'er. He's from western Sydney. Has heaps of stuff. But I only bought the Tourmalike and a piece of Kunzite.

Thanks Orange Pirate

I'll e-mail them for details.  My daughter saw the stone and ,
liked it then walked into the kitchen and it changed colour.  She was blown away and immediately claimed the stone for a ring.

Ahh Mehooose, at our age you should never put things in a safe place, put it in one that you can remember!

Finished having another go at cutting the cyclops design. Managed to do a lot better this time, still had a few issues with meets, but feel i am getting there.

I fed my machine a sapphire , a beautiful little Chrystal clear pale blue sapphire.  I’ve been cutting small stones, had a beautiful little pavillian, met all the points the polish was great, did the transfer Nd set myself up on the crown, attached a 325 disc , set my angle, started at 2 on a 64 wheel , cut to 6 got to 10 and realised I had ground through the girdle and halfway through the top of the pavillian. That went well I thought
