Nice. Mel had some a while back the peaked my interest. The oregon material is not the quality I want. I've been looking for a clean slab large enough for cutting a bolo.
Thanks for the photo.

That's a beauty, Steve, but now you got a dilemma . . . polish the slab or whack it and cab it. You didn't have this problem a couple of weeks ago. I've bought a lotta slabs cause I saw nice cabs in 'em, but it's just too tough to cut 'em. Rich

I think I found this nodule actually in Oregon. I'm not totally sure...but my brother and I went looking for this stuff and I think we found a few pieces. I actually have a couple slices; unless I've given them away thru previous contests or something. Rich...I have no problem with any dilemna. It's gonna be a cab...for sure. Maybe this weekend. Thanks guys. Steve

Neat cut Steve! I'm a big fan of agate with inclusions especially plume and sagenite! I have a huge bin of sagenite from several locations but especially the Owlhead Mtns. Maybe I'll dig through it next ans sort some out......Mel
