Hi everyone!
I'm John, a rockhound from NJ. I'm obsessed with amber from all over the world. I started just collecting some hunks of amber, then taught myself to do some basic shaping and polishing. Then I decided to teach myself to make some jewelry to show off the amber. Now I'm learning all about how to make even better jewelry with other stones and metal.
When I grow up, I want to cab even more stones. I use free-form cabs and stones in most of my jewelry work, so I'd love to be able to make my own from slabs and hunks that I find.
I can't wait to check out all the accumulated knowledge in the forum!
