Sands- Sorry to hear about the hassels of getting quality rock off Ebay. I know of a place where you can go a see and heft your own rocks before you purchase them. Here is a pict of the front of the shop...... It looks like they've got lots of neat stuff just right out there in front. You could load up that camper pictured in the back and just take off w/ the whole lot.....LOL Take Care Dude, gaetz

I have some smallpieces of Noreena. It likes to fracture into triangles. Opticon might help. YOu can only really count on single cells (white area with orange border).

Sorry to hear about the fracture problems Sands, but those slabs and cabs at the start of this thread really turned out spectacular. That is some really unique material, I like it.
