Nice batch Mike. Lots of colors, different shapes, nice polishes ! What's not to like 
What's the stone that's second from the left on the bottom ?
It's pretty.

Thanks Patty! Not sure what that one is, I liked it too. Lots going on, including fortifications. Hard to get a good picture of it- maybe another picture would help someone ID it? |

I like all of them. The unknowns are okay, I've got plenty. Your hard work made the "okay and good" very nice. Thanks for sharing.

You've really been putting them out! I have several favs- the pink one (that I can't remember the name of), that one looks like marble and the magnesite. Great work Mike! |

The pink slab came from you and I think the other one is granite but I'm not sure. The magnesite I think also came from you maybe- it has some undercutting but I like it. I really need to start wrapping but I'm having too much fun cabbing. 😁 |

Yes, magnesite can undercut but worth the trouble. It's a nice cab and I can't see the undercutting in the picture.
Save the wrapping for winter. You're on a nice roll with the cabbing!

Yeah, I do believe that you sent that- and a few others! 🙂 |

Whoa now, that’s granite? People use granite for cabbing?! I never considered it… I did wonder WHY I don’t see it cabbed since I know it can be polished well, but didn’t even look to see if anyone is actually using it. That’s really beautiful! The depth it shows with doming is way different from just polished slabs.

The depth it shows with doming is way different from just polished slabs. I haven't cabbed granite, but I have tumbled it with mediocre results. But, granite does come in a wide variety of very nice colors, pink is especially nice, and so it appears it is cabable. |

A little better picture. Still hard to see details. If you are using a dslr, using a polarizing filter helps with the reflections |
