These are my first 2 cabs!! Just made them this morning.  They have a better shine than it shows but this was the only picture I got that wasn't pure glare. Does anyone know what they are? The round one I traded some local rocks with Yogibear from Spokane Washinton I think its local for him. The other one is local to me (Estevan SK). Don't know what they are but I am happy with both. |

Those look great Scott! The round one looks like some type of Onyx, but I don't know where it would be from. Keep up the good work!  |

Way to go Scott. Great looking first cabs. The second one has nice dendrites. So much fun. Keep up the good work.

Hmmm round cab looks like a banded agate but i can't place the color pattern so maybe if soft it is a travertine. The other. if hard, is Sagebrush Jasper from Wyoming. If softer, it could be Indian Paint Rock fro the death valley area of Calif or a similar dendritic stuff that's now coming out of China. Dealers call it a picture jasper but it's much softer than a true jasper...Mel

Nice job. If that second one is local for you, go out there and get more of it.

Nice cabs... ;D. Sabre52 is the closest. The dark spots are magnesium. Keep up the great work.
