And i really like the way Justin is explaining and saying we and not putting it just on Saxon. Treating him as an equal and showing him that they are doing it together. It puts less pressure and stress on Saxon and really shows the good father/son bond and the type of teacher/student relationship that every kid needs in their life to not only succeed but to thrive in life and the profession. Much love and respect Justin on your parenting and patient teaching skills with your son. Americans for the most part dont have what you have. Amazing job. I can't wait to see Saxon do some more on his own.

As a father myself, there’s nothing better than seeing your son do a good job at something.

Well well well, if it ain't a chip off the ole block. Great stone, but proving the old man wrong...Priceless.

It looks like Saxon is coming into his own. It's a proud moment when a son learns so well from his dad that the dad can start to feel really confident that he will have nothing to worry about when passing the torch. Good job saxon! As a father myself that makes me proud for you and your dad. Congrats.

It is so fun to see you both together, hearing the reckoning.... dad, who is experienced and cautious and Saxon who is young and willing to risk more to WIN big. You must be very proud of him! I´m sure lot of this art sits in his blood already <br><br>You two are a great team! Gorgeous work both of you

Well done Saxon. Your dad's a great teacher, he watches and advises, if asked or when he sees you're unsure but otherwise he just lets you get on with it.

I've been watching like a Hawk for years and seeing you working with your Son during this new Arc is just too wholesome. Well done brother. Really hit that gem of a life run.

Like Father like Son! Saxon has come a long way in his cutting skills and is well on his way of becoming a Master Opal gem cutter just like his Father and Grand Father! 3 generations of making beautiful Opals! Catch you on the next. ✌️ 😊
