Howdy folks! This is a little chunk of seam agate I found up north showing some multi-colored moss flowing through it. Basically I just helped out the shape a little, flattened the bottom a bit and domed the top.

This is wet after 600

And some less than stellar pictures after polish

Heading out to Las Cruces in the morning for a week long workshop. Hope to do a little hounding out there in the evenings but that remains to be seen.

Anyway, hope you all have a great week, and thanks a bunch for looking!

I Wanna Rock!!!

Beautiful stone, Brian!

Have fun at your week long (ack) workshop!

Robin

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."

-- C.S. Lewis

Thanks a bunch everyone!

realrockhound yeah it was pretty much shaped by nature!

hummingbirdstones the workshop was brutal, but I survived! The smell of roasted peppers was still wafting through the town.. being so close to Hatch and all.. and I had a pretty good view from my room

Good to be back home
