Hey all. Here's 5 more I worked up today.
This one is from Fairburned, it's some of his awesome Black Hills Agate
25x20mm

This is the side I wanted to use, but while cutting it, a chunk fell out of the other side so I had to use that for the front.
Back side

Here's a piece of Flame Agate I got from Bearcreek
25x20mm

Another piece of that Sagenitic Agate
25x22mm

backlit

These next two are from that really nice piece of Laguna Agate I posted last week
33x27mm

48x16mm

Thanks for looking.

What else can ya say? That Black Hills Agate is fantastic but them they all are. The Black Hills reminds me of Teepee Canyon material but the matrix looks fully agatized and much nicer....mel

Holy crap, Ed! -- You've turned into Bear Creek Lapidary!!!!

Absolutely super job on saw jaw-dropping materials. Stunning placement on that sagenitic agate -- looks like the view of the bottom of the ocean, with some kind of plant growing up from the ocean bottom.

Thanks everyone. I'm glad I was able to win that sagenite from Bear(sorry Joe). I still have 2 more slabs of that stuff left and will be cutting it up very soon. I'm also glad I decided to cut up that laguna agate because even with all the fractures, it's still gonna yield a lot of nice material to work with.
Welcome to the cab section Don, I thought it might be nice for you to check out some of the stuff being posted in this section and hopefully you'll be inclined to come back again.
