So we went garnet digging and came back with several. I'm looking for someone who can polish and/or cut them. I want my daughter to have a graduation gift that hopefully she will appreciate. Anyone here do it or have a local source?

Check out the local gem society. Like WaGuns they just like rocks (stones).

Might find a hobbyist willing to take on the work.

If so, he may have some ideas…
