I've been working of these for a few days-I had some REAL work I had to do-but here they are at last. Pink Brecciated jasper from Cal 28x30mm These next 2 are Quantum something or other, also from Cal 25x20mm 27x18mm Some poppy jasper with a different look that the usual Morgan Hill stuff. The fractures started showing up while I was on the 280 wheel. 30x20mm 30x20mm 22x18mm And a Regular MHPJ 35x22mm An Arizona Agate 28x20mm A South American Agate 30x22mm Thanks for looking.

Wow! Those top poppy jasper cabs are sort of an unusual pattern. Dang I wish poppy jasper wasn't so darn fractured! I like the pink breccia too...mel

There is nothing regular about picture 7 that's some awesome looking stuff Ed.
Thanks again for the goodies this weekend, I am silly busy this week so it'll be a few days before I get anything shined up and worth taking pictures of.

Nice Ed- very nice- SO what did you do with the fractures on the MHPJ??? Seal em- or keep grinding and hope for the best?

Thanks everyone. Yea, that Cal is a nice guy. I didn't realize how nice that quantum stuff was til I saw the cab Jamie made, so I decided to give it a try. Well, Stephan, the cabs you see are what I ended up with and since they are so badly fractured, they are of no use to me so I think I'll just give them away to someone who would like some stones to practice wire wrapping.

Wow, that Pink Brecciated japser is cool! Ya know I am a softy for the poppies though. I like the unusual poppy jasper. I came across an unusual rock of Morgan Hill jasper recently. That stuff looks different every time. That one with the big honkin orbs is beautiful. I also like the South American agate a lot. Great looking cabs as usual. Steve
