I am real good at procrastinating, so my slab bucket has overfloweth. I took a picture of the bucket before I went and dumped it into the sink. First table full These are all Owyhee Jaspers This was given to me as Wascoiite, but I can pretty confidently say I think it is pet wood Graveyard point material Susan and I went together and bought a 34 lb chunk of Ocean Jasper. Here is a slab off of it, it is about 7 inches across. Second table Pietersite Morrisonite Agatized wood Graveyard Point plume I am really getting to like my Holy Crap rock pile. Here are 2 different rocks from Holy Crap pile. This one has lots of pink in it backlit This one sure reminds me of Green Forest Fire agate, a little pitty, but sure looks cool. Montana Agate Montana Moss, I took a backlit photo, but it does not show it very well at all, this stuff is sooooo cool!! Thanks for lookin.........................Tony

Great selection of material! My big question is, how did you get away with dumping that bucket in the sink? If I did that, there would be some disharmony in the house. Even if the dishrack off times has more slabs than dishes in it. Woody

tony i wanted to ask you how long does it take for you to cut a slab on the 24' saw. it takes us about an hr. seems like a long time for one slab.
