Here's the latest bunch o' cabs and things! Hope you like them as much as I enjoyed making them!

First, it's um... some kinda Agate! This is a really thin cab!

This one I call the "Folded Cab". Well, it looks folded to me!

Another piece of that crummy Green India Agate that Dave threw at me. ;D

I really like this one. It's Marston Wood. Maybe...

The next one is cut more like a pendant than a cab. It's a crummy end piece and the back is yucky. But this stuff is too pretty to waste!

Back:

Ok, how about some of that Pet Palm I got from Dave (Snowdog).

And a small (1 1/4'') Pet Palm pendant:

How about the ever popular unknown agates:

Thanx for looking at all that!

I like the shapes you're coming up with. That palm wood is a cross between BO and Pietersite. Looking good my friend!

The small pet palm pendant is so beautifully shaped! That cab realy looks folded, how did you do it? Adrian

Great looking cabs Joe, keep up the good work!!
