Here are a few of this years cabs. Santa brought a light tent this Christmas...via UPS yesterday. The old sleigh on the roof gets through better than wheels on our snow covered road. I got the lighting pretty good, but still struggling with the auto focus on my wee digital camera. Nobody is going to hurt my feelings on how bad the photography is. I may have to use my wifes Nikon D-70 so I can get a decent focus. I will reshoot these when I figure out the focus on my wee camera........and do some reshaping to the cabs. Cardiac Hill agate Wonderstone Toutle river red moss agate Rice agate I got from Ozzy Mount Saint Hellens moss agate Saddle Mountain petwood Toutle river carnelian...looks much like Brazilian agate Green Mountain, Kalama, WA jasper

That is a beautiful batch of out of the ordinary cabs! I love how you know where everything came from. As soon as I have things away from the labeling, I forget! It's good to see that Santa knows what you need and delivers! Fran

Woody forgot to give credit to a forum member that posted the link for the inexpensive light tent. It is the camera I have not figured out. Woody

Great bunch of Cabs Woody. I like the fact that you know where all the material is from...and many places I've never even heard of. I like that Cardiac Hill Agate and the Carnelian as well. Steve

Awesome set of cabs. The shapes and shine are great. I think my favorite is the Green Mountain Jasper. I love the pattern in that one.

Hey Woody,
The Carnelian is amazing, those bands are so beautiful and the colour is highly attractive, you got a great shine too, that's a super cab. Your stones are really pretty, but I liked the last Jasper very much, those patterns are like a lightning flash, really cool display! Thanks for sharing your talents! Nice cutting Sir!
Cheers,
Sparkles.

Beautiful cabs and the photos look really nice too. But, just go ahead and grab your wife's camera and they'll be even better. I love using a black background, but it shows every little speck of dust, cat hair and everything else.

Love the carnelian, and the red moss. I often wondered what kind of amazing rocks that mountain might have belched up T
