I bought a 10# bag of black skinned agates from Dave last week and they arrived yesterday! Of course, there was some extra 'packing material' included in the box Thundereggs This one's outrageous with the little tubes, the ghostly floater and the brilliant red spot deep in the bottom Plus a 5# chunk of pet wood A little detail PLUS a 6# chunk of palm! Thanks Snowdog!!

Great looking box! You're going to love working with that Indian Blackskin Agate. I tumbled some recently and it takes a fantastic shine, as good as Bots, lakers, Brazilian etc. Real pretty stuff almost like Montana Agate too. Think it's one of those materials that's sort of under rated because it's easily available but man, it's nice stuff....Mel

WTG Dave. Lots of nice material. I predict long sessions with the saw, tumblers and or cabbing equipment.

Great bunch of material Brian! I almost thought about taking those black skins too, but was saving up for a rock show. Can't wait to see how you finish them! That 'ghostly' Thunderegg is awesome too!
