I'd be afraid if I had one of those new machines...no chores would get done, and I know it would be awfully hard to go to work everyday. Great Cabs Randy. Is round 3 underway???

Steve That's why it's taken so long for me to get my kitchen done, and why I only work 3 days a week! ;D Nice job on the cabs Randy. Very addictive, don't ya think? |

I think that one is red jasper. Sometimes it's hard to tell the two apart depending on the cut. I started saving the slabs for cabbing when I first got my slab saw (that's how serious I've been about eventually getting a Genie) and some of the slabs, I can't remember what they are, but I remember who sent every single rock!!  Oh, I love the end one too, I think that it became my favorite one as soon as I put the shine on it. Koi and red jasper seem to shine the best, mainliy because there's hardly ever any flaws in the stones. I bought more of the red jasper at the pet store last week, I gotta make sure that I never run out. ;D |

When you get a cab machine, at 1st nothing gets done. Then as the new wears off and you actually learn how to make a good cab...you actually realize lots of stuff gets done but it's only rock related stuff
nice cabs Randy!

That end one looks real nice; but I like the first one the best. getting lucky or cabbing rocks; that is a tough call. I guess it depends on the rough.  |

Randy those are really nice. The shapes looks perfect. One question though, is there such a thing as being so tired that the wife won't get lucky? I've never heard of that before. ;D

Naaa, not really. She'd still get lucky, even if I fell asleep in the process. ;D

I am red green color blind, so I am probably missing a lot. The shapes are perfect. My ovals always turn out squished.

Funny thing, I'm red/green color blind as well (honest). I also how problems distinguishing between certain shade of gray/pink/silver, tans and oranges, and a few others, but there are rocks that I can see patterns in that nobody else can see.
