Not the neatest of slabs, but slabs none the less. Kind of limited with a 7" tile saw, but it's better than nothing! This is from tandl & it looks really neat cabbed. The preform I already have a wrap ready for it. It is going into one I did that I took another cab out of because it didn't look right. Was just too busy! Snowflake & Silver Sheen Obsidian Banded Fluorite from Washington state Polish Flint Medicine Bow agate More Horn Coral This was a greenish colored rock, don't know where it came from. I cut it because I was curious as to what it looked like. The greenish parts just kind of fell apart. This was more toward the center & I don't know how stable it is. Dino Bone That's it for Sunday's cutting!

Always love bone, and glad to see you getting to some of that flint you bought recently.
Between the cutting, cabbing, and wrapping, I am always amazed at how much you get done. (Or maybe I am really puzzled at how slowly I get projects moved along. LOL.)
