;DFinally some time to do a few cabs! I've had some pre-forms dopped and ready to finish and this is hopefully just a beginning of my weekend. I don't have anything going on, so i'm hoping to get a few more out! Gosh, I sure missed my rocks when I was out of town! ;D Enjoy! Biggs  Mystery Mountain Agate, Nevada  Saddle mountain wood and an unknown  Agate Beef sent me....can't remember which label this belonged to   A little concept I'm going to try...a specimen with a matching cab. Gotta re-do the dome on the display piece  thanks for lookin'! Steve |

Man Steve, those last two are lookers! That dendritic piece you got from Beef should be Anderson Mine Agate. Love the Mystery Mountain cabs too. That's one you don't often see around.....Mel

They are all beautiful! I really like the cab/specimen ones!
After trying and trying to make cabs (not very well) I really have a lot of respect for those of you who are so good at it. I am not going to give up though... Maybe one day I will have success. Right now, they will all sit and wait till I get a vibe tumbler to put a shine on them.
