I think that you have enough on the table to keep you out of trouble for quite some time! There are going to be some very nice cabs coming out of this lot. BTW, trying to cut curves with a circular saw blade is hard on both blade, and operator...better to cut a bunch of straight lines, then nibble the points off...if you are using robust tile blades. Garry (Mossyrockhound) even does the first bevel above the girdle with the edge of the saw blade. Woody Woody

Julie - I really like those shapes with the inside curves, but I'm wondering how one would go about putting a dome on something like that. I can't picture how I would do it with my meager variety of equipment. You have some really nice looking pieces there.

Dome? Dop? Bevel? Girdle? Ya right!!
I still can't use the dam saw!!! ;D
But .... I'm getting there!
And I am seriously thinking about putting up a shower curtain and taking my shampoo with me next time I cut rocks .... ;D

Shampoo, even! Wow. But seriously, I've taken to sitting behind the saw and pulling the slab towards me. That way, I can see the lines a lot better, and I stay dry. Cept for my hands, of course. Tom
