oooooo Pan... we could have some fun here.. I'm a jewelry designer. *grin*

" wanna see my cabochons baby? "

roflmao. I have a couple thousand cabochons in various sizes and from many types of stone. let me know if you are looking for anything in particular. (for your "rock" collection)

dont know if you are interested in working with opals at all, let me know before you buy some rough and have at it - they are an itch with a capital B to work with, and I have some preformed ones that i could pass along to ya that you could practice polishing on before you wrecked your rough teaching yourself on it.

malachite, ironstone, chrysocilla, rose quartz, onyx, a couple dozen types of agate, tiger eye, moonstone (brown and blue), rubies, emeralds, lapis lazuli... gaah the list would go on and on...
