I had a batch of spotted sodalite that finally finished. I ran some labradorite and a few other softer stones with it at the end for filler. I am never happy with the labradorite but one day I will learn the secret (I am determined)

Thanks for looking!

I've yet to get a piece of amazonite to do any better than a matte finish. I'm jealous! Tom

Those look great for some really tricky material. The Sodalite rocks! If anybody can find the answer Fran, it's you! Jo P.S. I always get the feeling that it doesn't like borax. Hmmm...
