That's cool stuff, John. I might need a cabojohn of that! Fergie got the OK to travel today, so I hope to be able to visit you *not this weekend* but the following weekend...provided we don't get more snow!

Found a pic of the piece I got from Stoneage Ind. It did have some rusty red in it, kind of a nice contrast. This stuff really shines up nice too.
