Hi all. If you are looking for a great place to buy rough rock at a decent price, then you should give these guys a try. Spider Jasper 30x22mm These 3 are Black Zebra Agate and all are 30x22mm These next 3 are Cathedral Agates. 28x14mm 20x30mm 25x18mm And this is a piece of Stone Canyon Jasper I had sitting on my grinder waiting it's turn. 36x25mm Thanks for looking.

i've seen that top one called Chysanthemum Jasper too....Sands had some a long while back. i think i've seen it called Starburst Jasper too...cool stuff, whatever it's called. i have a huge slab of similar material only it's grey. i'll have to dig that out again.
that black zebra looks like cool stuff too, and i have to agree, that Stone Canyon really is something. love the dynamic shape.

Well it's about time someone posted pics of Black Zebra Agate. I kept hearing about it but didn't see any pics...cool looking stuff! I like the Stone Canyon piece too... kind of unusual. The Cathedral stuff is amazing...can't wait to see more of that.
As always, your cabs are great! ......always nice to see your work Stoner.

Thanks everyone, that SCJ cab has some nice patterns on it. It's been sitting on my grinder for about a month now, so I figured it was time. I'm going to try and get the other Cathedral agates cut today, I'm kinda anxious to see what treasures lie within those.

I saved this thread for last before I head to bed - just like a bedtime story. I'll have amazing dreams after looking at those! That pattern in that stone canyon blows me away!

More awesome work Ed! I really like the Stone Canyon too ( Always one of my favorites! Got some prime stuff on that big federation field trip a few years ago but haven't cut much yet. ) but those Cathedral Agates are fine too....mel

Ooooooooooo man, awesome cabs. That Stone Canyon is really nice but the third Black Zebra Agate and the third Cathedral Agate are tied for winner this time. How'd you like working the zebra agate? I have some in the coarse barrel waiting to get out and move on to the next stage.
