Happy Easter Everyone!
Well, everyone who celebrate easter this Sunday. The ones that don't (I am among them) let's enjoy the Spring coming.
Spring comes with green. So does my cab

The first pic is for proofing the egg shape, the second one is for the real colors.
I have this jasper slab from Deb. Thanks Daniel, great material!

Thank you for looking.

That sure looks like Oywhee Jasper, but the new name should be Robbin's Egg Jasper.

Thanks again everyone.
Tony, I use flexible diamond pads and do wet polishing with them. Doesn't work great for all rocks. I had to work pretty hard for the obsidian and the hematite was impossible to polish with this method.

I am in love with jasper at the moment; what kind is that?
	Surprise: to cause to feel wonder or astonishment by being unexpected. Happens every time I crack (now cut!) a rock.
