Had a chance to work another piece of teepee agate that jasoninsd was kind enough to send me. I really enjoy working this stuff. This was a seriously hard piece of material. Made the hard wheel sing! Nice polish off the 3000 wheel. Should look real good after it comes out of the vibe.

Looks like you got a really good polish. Do you always throw cabs in the vibe?

"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."

Thanks! I've been putting them all in the vibe. I was having trouble with polishing. I have a buffer I bought a while ago that I'll eventually get setup and do everything by hand.

Thanks! I can't take any credit for the capture. Jason sent these to me as preforms. Certainly makes the decision on where to cut easy!

Thanks! It's fun when the stone behaves.

It's really surprising how hard this material really is...and the polish this stuff can take always seems to be top-notch...as your cab illustrates!!
