Looking good Dan! That first pic of the Priday plume looks like it is the best to me, but it's difficult to tell in a photo if the plumes are so close to the surface that you would lose them when contouring the cab. I'm sure it's going to look great whichever way you go.

Dan, Those cabs are all definitely BEAUTIES! I hope you post them in "Creating Cabochons" so more people can see them. Beautiful eye candy! I'm sure others that haven't been reading this competition thread would want to see them too! Thanks for all your work on this competition and for creating these beautiful award cabs.

Thank you Dan, so much, I love it!!!!!
This was a fabulous contest, now if I can just find the patience to make every cab with the thought that you are judging it, LOL!!!!
You rock!

My Priday plume cab arrived yesterday while I was out hounding. It was nice to come home after an enjoyable day out with the guys and find Dan's parcel waiting on the table. I can say I certainly wasn't disappointed when I opened it up! What great material, workmanship and especially polish on this cab! I'm glad Dan wasn't one of the contestants in the cab competion.
You did great Dan. Thanks again.
