I bought an Inland swap top about 6 months back and start trying to make cabs. After figuring out a few things and several mistakes here are a few of my cabs. Let me know what you think. Adventurine Crazy Lace Agate Brazilian Agate Tom

Those are gorgeous, Tom! If I didn't know better, I'd say they look like they have a layer of clear acrylic on them or something! Terrific shine, and tremendous uniformity in each one.

I like the 2nd one the most, but the 3rd one shows how perfectly you shape those ovals.

Tom, I hadn't seen these before. You really did a great job and the calibration on them is wonderful! Mine always end up looking a little lop sided... Really love the lace! Fran
