I have mine planned to be done by next weekend and in the mail nlt Monday the 25th. Cutting it close I know but Priority Mail should be 3 days so I feel like barring any natural disasters that should work.🤞

Receipt of Cabochon for judging: 9/30/23 There's a bit of 'in the mail' wiggle room in there of course

OK Tommy , I've had enough torture challenge for this month- it's in the box & shipping out Priority Mail. It was all you promised - challenging, difficult, and even rewarding (since it's done).
Thanks,
Patty

I agree, jasoninsd. Ali said she doesn't like plasma and I can say I wholeheartedly agree 🤣 Mine took twice as long (probably 3x) than it should have and I'm really not happy with it. But it's what I get for waiting til the last minute 🤦🏻 Getting mailed tomorrow, should have plenty of time to arrive Tommy.

I've been getting stuff turned in early lately but guess I'm back to my last minute stuff again. I think I did 5 cabs for this competition. I picked the one to send in a while ago and have been meaning to get it in. I just came up with what I think is a great idea, so hopefully I can find the slab and kick it out this weekend!

My package has been dropped off at the PO. ETA is Wednesday the 27th 🤞 And I will say now that the smoke has cleared, there was a few things about plasma that I do like. Thanks for the opportunity to work it Tommy

But it's what I get for waiting til the last minute 🤦🏻 Getting mailed tomorrow, should have plenty of time to arrive Tommy . Yeah...I thought I was a fan of this material...but I've reconsidered after this one! LOL I've been getting stuff turned in early lately but guess I'm back to my last minute stuff again. I think I did 5 cabs for this competition. I picked the one to send in a while ago and have been meaning to get it in. I just came up with what I think is a great idea, so hopefully I can find the slab and kick it out this weekend! When I got the slab, it took all of about 3 minutes to see the spot on the slab I wanted to use for the first-choice cab. I keep my cabs (which are on dop) on a ledge going downstairs. I can see them as I walk in the house. This cab was done for weeks...and just sat on that ledge waiting for me to decide if it was "done"! I finally said to heck with it and let it go "as is". LOL

You guys aren’t instilling much confidence in me. I’ve been working extra hours all month, nights, weekends, I still need to get a days work in on Sunday, then afterwards I can get out there and try to finish a cab and get it in the mail Monday. I have no idea what I’ll end up with but I do have several preforms to work from. 🤞🤞

We are now in possession of two more boxes that are presumably cabochons from jasoninsd and liveoak. I say presumably because with Jason it could be a box full of exploding poppers and glitter...you just never know. Anyway, the Boss has them (thanks for the giggle Jason), all still unopened.

Done, and sent! I look forward to playing with these other preforms that I have. Really pretty material in some areas. Quite a variety of stuff going on in there. 👍
