We put the bird in the oven so I have some time to take some pics of the latest tumble.This is another batch of the same stuff I posted last week.

Crazy Lace.I got a lot of undercutting in the red parts of this stuff,but the solid parts took a nice shine.

Some Dryhead

Some Agate from Utah

Greentree Agate from India on the left,I had a lot of undercutting with this stuff also.Moss agate from India on the right.

An assortment of Agates and Jaspers

Some of my local beach rock I added as filler

Here is a classic example of undercutting,the yellowish center of this Crazy Lace was like dried mud.

Hope you like the pics and Happy Thanksgiving!

Crazy Lace eats my lunch with the undercutting as well. I also wind up with several breaks along fortification lines. Good work. Have a great day.

Those can go straight to pendants and wraps. Are those a couple of preform Prairie Agates I see in there? Really like those.....Mel
