Nice cuts my friend!!

The second one down in the group pic...I'd bet my last two dollars that's a Black SKin Agate. I've cut a bunch of those. Fun material to work! Funny, I pulled out my bag of Black Skin Agate preforms just this morning and was looking at them!

That MMA is a stunner! Great pattern in that one. Looks SOLID as well!!

Thanks Jason. They were all incredibly solid. I kept expecting more cracks to show up. That was one of the darkest MMAs I’ve seen.

Lovely! I really like the Bruneau and MMA's.

"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."
