Ok after all those small cabs and fingers healed it was nice to make a couple normal sized cabs. One is pretty small but what can I say, I got hooked, and a lot of people like them for making rings.

The non-lake Superior agates came from JR8675309 ! Thanks!!

Here's the tiny one 😍

Nice Biggs jasper (#3), I haven't seen Biggs in a while. The tiny ones are very nice. I think #5 is my favorite. Thanks for sharing.

I love how translucent the material looks with your polish.

Alex, this material looks familiar...but the name of what I'm thinking of is escaping me...

It has a "cosmos" type look to it...

Now that you say Amy Sage, I can see that in the cab...but it wasn't what I was thinking!

I agree...love that cab too!
