Hello, all,

I cabbed two cabs today.

The drusy one is a cab that Ioana (my daughter) drew on a Burro Creek (Catmandewe) slab and claimed for herself:

The second one is a thin cab (about 3 mm) that I made from a picture jasper slab I have from Daniel (deb). The resembling with the famous Uluru rock, the "Heart of Australia", stroke me from the first moment:

The real Uluru:

Thank you for looking,

Adrian

Rocks choose their owners, but they allow us the joy of believing to the contrary.

I like the druzy and the picture in the second one really does look like Uluru. Very nice work Adrian.

Oh now that's just too cool... I think your girl has great taste! and good thing you were able to cab it to perfection! I've tried my hand at one with a druzy pocket but can't ever bring it to complete polish ... Oh and the second cab is just like magic!
