Hi all, I posted these and more in the cab section, but I wanted the people who don't visit the cab section to see some nice examples of Dinosaur Bone and some fossilized limestone. First 2 are Dino Bone Fossilized Limestone These are cut from material I got from Bearcreek, so if anyone was wondering if he has quality material, I can assure you he does.

The 2nd bone pattern is unusual. I always see more rounded/smaller cells. Nice.

It looks like he might have done just that John. Maybe he cut the second one on a slight angle to elongate the cell structure on the face of the cab. These were the first dino bone cabs I worked up since I did that one for Gaetz about a year ago. Fun stuff.

Feel very solid, but not a lot of color showing on the outside. Anyway, I will try the cut-both-ways thing. May be a couple of weeks though, cause there is a line next to the saw. I think I need another saw.

Thanks guys. Harry, the limestone is pretty soft but took a great shine on the grinder. If you're thinking of tumbling some, I'd be watching it very closely as it would probably disappear pretty fast.
