Nice cab! The edge is very even. Is it a tumbled cab?

wow, can't believe that is your FIRST!!!! you nailed the shaping. great job, but i got to let you know the joke about unakite in here (this forum)... a long time ago, a most noteworthy member of long standing mentioned that unakite was "vomit stone" and i've never got that out of my head.
but apart from that, it's a great start....can't wait to see more!

Great job Brandon, and I can see why you want to go hunting for more unakite.  Sorry I missed out on going to Mikes house today, got tied up on Amanda's car. (stuck at home all day)  Hmmmm, Cheryl- now that I think about it, the only cabbing that I've done with Brandon was the faceted quartz. He figured out something else while I wasn't around. ;D |

No problem bro. I wasn't there very long. Just long enough to get this done, say hi to couple of people and off to do the honey-do list  |

Nice job!! Looks like you got a really decent shine on that Unakite! Despite the vomit stone moniker, I really like Unakite. |
