I finally finished 5 cabs I have been working on for a few weeks. Life sometimes gets in the way of the hobbies, but after the show today I was polishing a piece of labradorite so I finally got to finish these. I had trouble taking individual photos, but the group shot turned out ok. There's 4 agates, 3 on top from Amber and the bottom left one is from Mary Ann, and a nice picture jasper, also from Amber. Hope y'all like them, Nate

The one one the right, top row looks like a winter scene. Nice cabs!

Really like the last one - kind of plain, but at the same time very interesting.

Very pretty cabs, Nate - I especially like the "wintry" one on the top row. Very cool.

Very nice set! It is kind of neat how you left the top right one a bit rough on the outer edges. It seems to accent the vug in the scene. Fran

Thanks everyone. The jasper is quite a contrast to the agate, isn't it. I guess that vuggy one does look wintery. I hate to think of winter, but I know it's coming. Fran, I guess that's not a true cab. It's a slice off I believe some sort of t-egg or geode, and was in the box Amber sent me. I love how it looked so I just polished the face and left the sides alone.

Nate: yes that one piece was from a Thunder egg! What wonderful work you are doing, I am so glad you are enjoying the box, keep up the good work!

Thanks Amber. I'm enjoying it immensely! There's such wonderful material in the box. It's hard to pick what to work next.
