Good Morning All!!
Here is the fourth installment on barrel checks for Carnelian and a still somewhat unknown batch.
Here is the last post location, that also links back to the first link location.

I forgot to take pictures of the carnelian before I restarted the barrel. I did add a few more pieces to this batch and think that in time, as with all carnelian, they will come out great. With all the starts and stops, this batch has now been going 88 days.
The other batch has lost more mass so I chunked up some more rough and added it in. The pieces marked as the roughest on the sheet went back into the batch. The other three, "in the middle", "smoothest", and "smaller pieces" have been set aside to add back to their respective stages when ready.
Once again .... my goal is to have enough finished rough to create a vibe batch.
I am also setting a goal of less than 2 weeks to cut up (freeform) enough of the slabs I have for a vibe batch.
