Well today I found time to finish the water system on my new 4 drum beaver grinder. I am still waiting for two more drums they were on back order. I may just get 3 diamond wheels instead. I did manage to make 8 cabs today and finish one I had allready started last week with druzy.  Onyx of coarse. With some wonderstone Rhyolite and Agate.   Here is the agate with druzy.  And well for my finger, I think I need to try to learn how to use dop sticks. |

Nice cabs Jason. I really like that onyx and the shapes of your cabs. That druzy is really neat.

They're all awesome but like I said, i'm a sucker for any nice lace agates! ;D That drusy must have been a tricky one but you pulled it off sweet!  You should use golf tee mini dops or something if you don't like the big ones and spare those finger tips to cab another day!  |

Here is the new grinder with 3 diamond wheels.   I have just under $500 spent on this grinder and it was well worth it. My trouble is that it throws water forward. Am I dropping to much water flow? Jason |
