That's one heck of a shine Jack! I can see bottles in the window from the reflection in #9.

Wow you shined those up real fine Jack! Love the green jasper and the blue lace. The slide presentation is a fine way to show them off too....Mel

Hi All,
Thanks for the replies
The Green is a green Jasper from the Fish aquriam supplies also the red kite and the other pre shapes simular stone shines up realy good
The Blue lace Agate was from Manchester Minerals some big comercial polished stuff I re sawed and polished up
I get a few rocks this way you can see the grain and design and cut accordingly.
Thanks again for looking and the replies,
have a good W/end

Jack, do you happen to know if Sam Turners sells rocks? He'll only be stocking it as rock garden stuff of course.

Hi RT,
Sam Turner ,They do sell rocks but not the interesting ones a bag of ordanary scotish agates maybe I havent seen much there, Wilkinsons had some agates in smaler batches a few years ago B & Q ??
Best Try Aqua Fanatics on the Thirsk road A168 2 mile outside of Northallerton, they got the green jasper , Red Jasper, clear Quartze, Rose Quartze
Also Strikes at Stokesley have a Aquatic section which has a a lot of rocks also very deep red jaspers Cut well and polish up HGloss
Have a good day
