I just needed some LSA fix (thanks alot Starguy). Kingsley North carries LAS occasionally. I got 5 lbs of the small a couple years ago and was pleased enough with them. They have been out of stock for a while, and just recently re-stocked. I grabbed 5 Lbs of the medium this time, and again I'm pleased enough with these. No they are not stellar, but more than half show some banding, and there are some that look to have eyes, and moss. Some are mostly quartz centered, and a few look like Jasper nuggets. Not sure when I will have room to get them started, but I fully expect these to take nearly a year.

Those are nice looking agate nodules stefan. Kingsley North seems to get good material. They must be pretty big. I got mine from eBay. I’ve been trying some ideas to stabilize quartzies. I’ll let you know how it goes. I’ll be watching for pictures of your progress.

There is something so special about LAS to me. Those look promising.

What a troublemaker! We're all going to be addicts soon. It's a slippery slope.

Man I slid down that slope, up the other side, down a bigger slope, off a cliff and floated down the river and over the falls. Unfortunately there isn't any room in any course barrel right now (hmmm maybe a 5th barrel needs to be devoted to course?). There is one complete nodule (not in the picture, I just realized this was only half of the bag lol) that is screaming to cut. I will get a picture this week and post it up.
