What I think are 2 OJ's and a Laguna...ok, I know at least one is OJ for sure! If I remember correctly, all three slabs came from rockjunquie. Thanks for looking.   |

Look at you go, miket! You've got the cabbing with wheels down pat. Great stones and yes, 2 are OJ.  |

Those look really nice, Mike! Your really taking to your genie.
The bottom is Kabamby OJ. The "laguna", I think, is from Madagascar, not Mexico. I labeled all the pieces, but I did it in pencil.

I am always drawn to your OJ, but your lace agate pulls me away from them. The contrast between the curved versus the straight/angled pair of sides complement the patterns well. I think that cab could also work very well in a horizontal pendant orientation — point side up or down.
Wonderful cutting, Mike!

I still freeform all of my cabs and try to let them tell me what shape they want to be. Sometimes it works, sometimes not- but I think the straight/curved wad pretty good on this one. I didn't think of a horizontal cab, but I really like that idea. Thanks again! |

They're all great miket , but I like the green Kabamby OJ. Would be extra nice in copper.

Thanks, Patty! I haven't used copper in a while, just personal preference I think- but I agree with you, copper would look good on that one. |

Hey, miket I misspoke- the "laguna" is a Moroccan agate. I knew it would come to me eventually. Madagascar didn't seem right. |
