We have too much stuff and our living room is basically a storage area. I have been buying rough and slabs on ebay for quite a while, a lot more than I could ever cab. A few years ago I took around 500 pounds of stuff that I didn't think I would get to and put it outside with my cabbing equipment. The stuff that I kept was organized into cigar boxes and small shipping boxes. I've been running out of things to cab without repeating myself or cutting stuff that is too good for me to cut until I get more proficient. I took a brief excursion to the rock pile and on the top there was a bag with 3 dinobone slabs.

The side I scanned had some kind of coating on it. The material looks better with rock slobber. The scanner really distorts things. The red slabs are 6x3".

dandresow: Thanks. Haven't done anything with rocks for years. Just fixed an older HP 18 inch and dug out a 10 inch and 18in Lortone and I have a couple of trim saws and need to make something to cab with. We stay broke and I only have enough to put oil in 1 Dec 1, 2024 16:49:20 GMT -5 *
