I have a large slab of Opal Butte jasper that I would like to get polished so I can give it to my dad. Also I need to find some kind of stand for it. Let me know what you would charge or maybe we could trade for something............................ You can see it in the specimen photographs section.

I have access at class. Would trade for spheremaking rough. You pay freight here and I'll pay it back.

Scott, what size pieces would you need for sphere making? I would have to look to see what would fit the bill.

you could go all out and order a custom metal stand. Theres a beautiful piece of petrified wood on here with a cool stand about 1/3 of the way down. ancientartifax.com/stands.htmChuck

I have 20" "jiggle pan" lap and could polish it for you. No charge. It doesn't do too shabby of a job once you solve the up/down hopping/end thrust bit. Actually, I usually end up using it to "finish" polished nodules I've bought since there usually seem to be very fine micro-scratches left by the pad or wheel used. Big hunka lead overnight on a SnO charged pad and, voila! PM me if you want to do it. C-ya, Rick
