Well, Zotika got me by 1, I only got 11 done today. These first 2 are Liz's flame agates Morgan Hill Poppy Jasper 30x25mm Two more Shattuckite 30x22mm 38x25mm Unknown Jasper 35x28mm These next 4 are my first jade cabs other than the nepherite material Tony has given me. I don't remember what kind of jade this is, but it's cool looking. 22x17mm White Jade 22x18mm A couple of BC Jade 18x10mm I'm going to give this one to my wife for Christmas then take her to my local rock/jewelery store and have her choose a setting and have them mount it for her. I'm thinking more along the lines of a ring rather than a necklace. 12x10mm And finally, Red Mexican Crazy Lace 35x25mm Thanks for looking.

Quite a variety in that batch, Ed . . . material and color. Hard to pick a favorite in that crowd, but I'll go with flame #2.

I like how the flames lick across the sides towards the front - great job on those, great stone too.
They're all very awesome - Stoner you rock & rule!

Wow Ed, another great bunch of cabs! I'd say you really did those first two plume specimens up real fine. Those are gorgeous! Got to say I'm really impressed with the jade cabs too. Those are sweet and it looks like you got through them without the major undercutting I often have problems with. I love working with jade but jade on diamond wheels gives me fits!....mel

Those are nice ed, I'm not a big fan of jade but the cabs you did could sway me over. Your wife will love the one you made for her.
