The other two are Prairie Agates from Jason jasoninsd. Thanks for looking, Chris

Great polish ! The patterns on the prairie agates are super nice. Like turbulent weather patterns. Thanks for sharing, Patty

Seeing how I'm a sucker for blue (and purple) cabs, the first is my favorite. You did a great job on these!

Thanks. I haven't cut one yet that I didn't like that pattern or colors.

Thanks. I ran into one of your agates that stopped my saw blade twice. Even sharpened it after the first time. Not sure what the deal was other than PAs being harder than heck (didn't have any problem with other rocks inbtween). After the second time on the same rock, I decided that rock was actually meant to be broken up and tumbled.

chris1956 - I swear some of the PA's I've worked TRULY are the hardest material I've ever run across. I have some chunks of some Flor de Durazno - Crazy Lace which is also beyond hard! I think it's a tie between the two of them!
