Iβm 26 and kind of broke right now. Raman has been a cheap thing when Iβm between paychecks. Normally Iβll get my recipes off the intent app, but here and there all I got is Raman. I try to add eggs, celery, carrots and spinach to it when I can, but is there anything else I can do to make it less horrible for me?
Hi all, I've been lurking here for a loooooong time and have reached out to a few of you. I'm a hobbyist gemcutter who loves all kinds of crystals grown by people - be it easily soluble things that people grow at home, or materials used for gems or in optics/physics/tech.
I'll be going to the various Tucson Gem Shows this year and wanted to make an offer. I'm friends with a few guys who manufacture high-end gem testing equipment, and every year, I bring them extremely rare stuff that they don't have in their database.
I haven't gone in a few years so I want to bring them unusual stuff. There have been a lot of recent posts on here with really interesting crystals!
If you've grown anything (other than copper sulfate or alum), and you'd like Raman, UV-vis, NIR, and FTIR spectroscopy of your material, let me know. If you send it to me, I'll take it for testing.
DM me or send me an email at faceting101@gmail.com if you're interested.
