i posted this photo of the slab that Steve Holmes sent to me a little while back: yesterday, i finished the cabs: with flash: and some close ups: this was a little tricky as the nice bits were so close to each other and i didn't want to waste even a little of this gorgeous material! thanks for looking!!!

Pretty. Beautiful. Gorgeous. I am impressed with how well you extracted those three cabs considering how close they sat in the original specimen. If you plan to set them or wrap them, will you please post pix of the final outcomes?

Great cabs, KD. At first glance, the big one's the star of the show. But the middle one is really cool, with the three 'islands' floating around the center.

Very nice job, the tiny specks of red make a beautiful pattern even more interesting, the way they float around seemingly suspended.
