Okay, it was break time again, so back to the grinder. I still don't have either one of my saws running, so I look around for small chunks of slabs that I can just grind into a shape. No, I'm not scrounging these off the floor! ;D Mex Crazy Lace WWR Plume Agate, this is some material I got from Sheri, and I have to say, it is some sweet stuff. Gotta get my saw going! Same cab, white backround For those of you who have been around for a while, you may remember another cab I cut from this stuff(I think Cher has that cab) I have no idea what it is, but it is a cool blue. Thanks for looking.

Wow great cabs Stoner. I'd be hard pressed to choose a favorite. That WWR plume agate sure looks like some sweet stone. But then agian so does the crazy and the unknown. I love all three shapes too. Thanks for sharing.

Yep, I like the "cool blue" too! I'd peg that material as either one of the many mossy tube agate forms that come out of Horse Canyon or moss out of the Weiser, Idaho region.....Mel

Beautiful cabs. The pattern of the blue one is fasinating and very unique. I've never seen a formation like that.

Ed - Awesome work! I've been out of the loop here and not doing any cutting, grinding, tumbling or collecting for a while, but I'm BACK! This weekend is shot, but next weekend I'll get out collecting again, at least that's the plan. Hope all is well.

Thanks everyone. Maryann, shame on you! Your priorities need a little adjustment! Rocks first, work second!

Ooooooo man that's amazing and beautiful. I love the way it turned out with the spot on the side. Hmmmm I think I might have that one, I'll have to dig and see. Poor Ed, how long before you can get your saws set up? What's holding you up?

The mysterious blue is a stunner but my eye is always drawn back to that beautiful Mexican Crazy Lace. There is just something so sultry about Lace!
