Making Spheres from my BC Gem Stones.

I sent off a bunch of BC Semi Precious Gem Stones to be made into spheres. Check out the process and the results! My favorite was the Dalasite.

We have nothing to sphere but sphere itself.

Great Spheres, Just beautiful, hope they bring great joy to anyone who gets one. Thanks for sharing I'll keep an eye out for one I can't

[michaelhayes]

Exquisite pieces! Working hands are no shame. It's the price paid to help share true beauty, like those spheres. A badge of honor, even.

Can't wait to see the results of the new batch. Especially the jasper.

The ocean picture sphere looks like a gas giant, love it!!!

[zzzubmno]

I really liked the ocean picture stone one. They were all nice and the finish product looks great. Should be a good money maker.

[cathymc]

Spheres turned out great and will make great show pieces for collectors and non-collectors alike!

VERY NICE WORK 👌 DEFINITELY WORTH A THUMBS UP. 👍🏻 FROM
BOSTON MASSACHUSETTS AREA. CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THE REST OF THE SPHERES. WOULD LIKE TO SEE THEM MADE INTO SOME KIND OF PLANETARIUM WITH ALL THOSE DIFFERENT COLOR STONS

Nice product there, Dan.

I once made a sphere from marble I found in California and it turned out quite well. The rig I used had two pipe like cups and used corundum powder with some water to cut the rock. About 1 3/4 inches in diameter.

I finally lost track of it over the many years and moves so now I only have the memories.

Well done Dan!

"Wow, I'm absolutely mesmerized by the process of making spheres from your BC gem stones! It's incredible to witness the transformation from raw stones to beautifully polished spheres. Your skill and craftsmanship truly shine through in every step of the process. The colors and patterns of the gem stones are breathtaking, and the way you bring out their natural beauty is remarkable. Thank you for sharing this fascinating journey with us. I'm inspired to explore the world of lapidary and create my own gemstone spheres!"

What a different way to present the beauty of Mother Earth!! You really open people’s eyes to it!! Thanks Dan!!

[mariemoss]

I have a few of these, did wonder how they were made ...it's a lovely way to show off a good polish 👍

[walterlang]

Very nice to see the end products! I'd like to see more videos about what can be done with the stones you find.

[shakascloset]

Awesome spheres. Thanks for showing us the process

[weirdo]

I absolutely love the picture stone!! In every form... raw, tumbled, cabochon, and now orb. The pinolite has always reminded me of palm trees... and to see a sphere of palm leaves is so cool!! Keep up the adventures and keep up your creativity with them!!!❤

[adamcarroll]

Really enjoy watching Dan enjoy his passion. He makes great videos. Very entertaining and educational.

[connifilteau]

[Gardeningchristine]

Beautiful stones! You should buy as many as you can afford! I’ve got 3 ocean picture stone specimens! They are soooo beautiful!

[bcbradley]

Dan Dan he's our man. If he can't sphere it, no one can!
