The group... This one I have posted before, but this is the one I grooved first and it broke in two. I'm pretty happy with the repair job I managed so I can at least wear it myself. Another piece of ghostwood...thanks again, Curt! Picasso marble Koroit. This one reminds me of a some kind of psychedelic sea beetle carapace.... Thanks, Tony

Tony: Glad you could repair the opal, I broke 3 can you fix them!!! I love the ghostwood, I love that material in any shape or form, it is just neat! The beetley looking opal is a fav, it is nice and round and beautiful colors. I am inspired to try another piece of opal Amber

Great job fixing the first, you would never know it happened. The beetle piece is neat, kind of like a sea cucumber, but more colorful.

Pretty beetle!
If you hadn't told me about the broken one I never would have noticed that

I really had to search and search to find any hint of a crack on the first BO. That was a great repair job! I like your little beetle too! It sure has a nice pattern and flash to it! You really have a great set here! Fran

Sweet set there T. Your koroit is always a treat to see. Glad you could fix the one that broke. I always worry a lot when I groove.

That is a great set of cabs. I love the pattern in the Picasso and that last BO is I think that where you had to repair the stone was just a mapping of where the wire should be placed, but that just my thoughts.

Great set of cabs Tony. Have to agree on the sea cucumber rock.

Thanks, all! Glad the broken one isn't too obvious. I like that one and want to make a pendant to wear. I'm going to glue the cracks again to try to get it even better, now I see what the camera sees. Tony

Those are beautiful, I do see the crack, however, it doesn't look like it goes all the way through. It looks like a natural crack of the stone. I did have to look at the stone at least three times before I saw the line. Tami
