As usual, I didn't waste any time cabbing up something from the two boxes of rocks I got today. The first one is a piece of Lookout Point pet wood I got from Steve. This stuff takes an incredible shine. 30x22mm  This next one is a preform I got from Bearcreek's auction. It's a beautiful piece of Maury Mt Moss Agate in Amythest. 35x16mm  Thanks for looking |

Ooooooooo that pet wood is gorgeous and so is the Maury Mt Moss Agate. Gee seems like we're associating a lot of gorgeous with you lately Ed. *smile* You are really outdoing yourself with shine here, totally amazing!!

This must mean your back feels better! Sweet! Yeah it's just another gorgeous job Ed.  It must be great to be able to bring the best out of each stone the way you do. |

Well, it was feeling better Joe, not so good after sitting there doing these cabs. I think I need to switch from advil to "V squared".(Vicodine and Vodka) Thanks guys.

I really like the petrified wood cab, Ed, but I'm partial to petwood. Both are gorgeous. Man, I gotta order that pixie!  S |

I tell ya Susan, there's nothing like going from rough to polish in a very short time. I think you should get into making cabs. I've got 3 more slabs of the maury Mt. material and they are all really nice.
Thanks everyone.

beautiful shine and shape on those, Ed....it's too bad your back suffers for your efforts. have you tried wearing a brace to keep you from slumping at the grinder (i should talk)?
