Howdy folks, Well, cleaned up my new cabs a bit more and some of them are not as bad as I thought. May put them back on the sticks, use a little filler on some spots and work them a bit more but they will probably be OK. Here are a bunch more cab pics from this batch. Rio Grande Flowering or Poppy Jasper. Have some just like this I found at Woodward too. The dark areas are hematite and should get even shinier on the wheels: Big Rio Grande Moss: Another Rio Grande moss with more red than shows in the pic: Rio Grande Moss with fortification: Sierra Primrose Jasper from our old ranch at Hornitos. Again the hematite needs more polishing. Five more Rio Grande Moss of varying sorts: Nice Brecciated Rio Grande: Lacy Rio Grande: Right: Marfa Plume, left Rio Grande: much more green in this one than shows. Rio Grande moss very much like Roostertail: Palm root of some kind. This will be much nicer with more work: And finally, another Texas palm fiber:
