I had a couple hours this afternoon, but my WF is down due to hanging a hard piece of mozarkite on the blade and it is toast! I did have a few precuts to work with and I was anxious to try my new Raytec rubber drum. That puppy is so much better than the exact span that I was able to cabs these in 2.5 hours. That is super quick for me.

Mozarkite

Plum Agate? or is it Plume?

Another Plum Agate? Plume?

Some kind of Jasper?

Thanks for looking
john

If I had to pick a favorite I'd say the second cab with the pinky purple swirls but that mozarkite with the pink band is very kewl too...Mel

Nice cabs! Lady B
	And Mother Earth spoke to me about her children and Lo! there were the rocks and minerals, the geodes and thundereggs, the crystals and agates. And I clasped them close to my heart. And Mother Earth smiled and welcomed me into her family. And I played with all the children in joy and peace forever as we all tumbled about.

Nice job on these cabs. The expando drums do make changing belts a lot easier. On my machine, it takes longer for the machine to spin down than it does to change the belt.

Thank All!
Stoner, The belts changing is sweet and the lortone drum always had a little bump in it! I really like the expando! I expect many have the multiple wheel and drum machines and maybe someday I will too, it must be great to cab a rock in each hand! LOL
