Woohoo! So you finally finished some cabs. Some very nice cabs at that. The Tiffany is really nice, but if you're going to have a naming contest, don't give the answer away! The Condor/Luna is my fav. Nice cut on that one. All the WWR cabs are great too. Got anymore?

The bird sitting in the tree is easy to see; love it when a stone has a picture in it like that. The second one down red with the black looks real nice. What grit are you polishing them upto?

spiritstone i go to 14,000. then i use the diamond sprays on leather - 14,000, 50,000 and 100,000 but i rarely go to 100,000.

i like the butterstone - it grinds/polishes quick!

one of these days i'm going to get a light/fan put back in the kitchen and it might improve my pics lol.

I see the bird too! It looks like a puffin looking backwards! Thse are great looking cabs. #4 looks really cool. I see what you mean about ging back. I often miss impurities until I take photos. #2 looks cool too, like a martian landscape.
