Father's day was pretty quiet because I lost mine last year. So I did some cabbing! It was a beautiful day and perfect for sitting in front of the cabber. I kept it down to 5 so I could take my time. Hope you enjoy them.

Morgan Hill Poppy Jasper

Moss agate from Jamie (desertdweller). This started out as a tumble sized rock but was able to swqeeze a cab out of it ;D

The next three are Gyöngyöstarján agates from Hungary. I recently got some nodules (see member photographs section) and some slabs as well. This stuff takes an amazing polish and was interesting to work with. I took my time with them.

Big eggish oval.

Because this agate is hard to come by, I used every little bit of the slabs. I had a small end piece and got an itty bitty cab. A little longer than a fingernail.

That second Hungarian agate is my fav. Awesome material, I'm so close to it and I didn't know anything about it till I saw it in your posts and in Zoran's. Adrian

That gyong agate sure has some neat patterns. Jamie's moss is really cool too. (Notice I didn't even try to spell it?) Adrian, I bet I know where your next rock trip it too! Tony

Good to see you back posting again. The far away agates are cool, but the poppy jasper is awesome. Nice cut.
