Ahhhhh.... I was wondering if they were drilled all the way through or just one post on top and bottom...and you answered that question....
Now I'm wondering where in the heck you can get diamond drill bits that long! They look pretty large (unless that's a small paper plate).....
You'll sell 'em easy John....

That Horizontal Picture jasper piece, in the ffith photo rocks! The angled bezels and oreiatation is primo! The nOreena looks nice too this way. But they all are very ncie eitherway.
Side drilling isnt to hard if you use a bead clamp, and drill it before cutting the bezel height.
