I started a topic on the general rocks board regarding where to buy premium material at a reasonable price. The thread discussed rock snobs. I like to cab premium material but also like anything interesting. I haven't cabbed for a while but here are some recent cabs cut from unknown material that I picked up. Upper left was bought as an unknown, but it Devils Toenails.

Great cabs! If you want to part with that first one pm me. It's AWESOME! I'm just starting up again. I was looking for the slab that I cut the cab from. I believe there are 3 or more cabs left in the slab that should produce cabs as nice. Send me a pm so I don't forget. I haven't found the slab but i found the picture.

Non-premiums are some of my faves. Less stressful when you slip up and sometimes even prettier than the pricey stuff. BAH! Too bad my lap is packed away..... *must survive*.

I wasn't familiar with Miro, but it could could him/her, too. Just did an image search, yup, could be. I'm not a huge Picasso fan, myself. The cab seems to recreate the best of him, though.

The day I got the mystery slab, I got another one from the same seller which is also pretty arty. My wife liked the Miro cab better than this one cut from the mystery slab.
