Beautiful! I see high resolution photos taken by a future astronaut on the surface of Mars. With your alien and my mars cab, might be a good idea to make a space theme for a future contest |

Very strong possibility I threw Batcave material in with the tumbles if you wanted to work some. I know I at least had intentions to, if I didn’t. Oh! I'll have to look and see if I can find and identify it! I need to sit back down and give cabbing another go. Not giving up by any stretch, just need to get back in the saddle. Don't let obsidian get you down. Move on to something else for some instant gratification. You'll get it.  |

Agreed. Obsidian isn’t something I’d recommend for a first time/new cabber. Try a harder material like a type of jasper. It’s a little more forgiving. I’d considered myself a “decently skilled cabber” and obsidian still gives me troubles.

Thanks, rockjunquie and realrockhound - I appreciate your words of encouragement. I will not give up - I do enjoy it |
