Here are a few of my first cabs using diamond wheels. Stoner sent me 2 of his older wheels and a friend from the Midland Rock Club loaned me an arbor to put the wheels on! Stoner also sent me a few parital cabs to get me started. How am I doing? I only have an 80 and a 220 wheel. The rest of the steps will come later!!

That blue-ish agate in pic #4 will be gorgeous when it's finished. Rich

Your cabs are looking good so far, now you just need to get the sanding stages done and polish them up. Sure is fun, don't ya think?
