Got it done! Had some issues today getting these pretties washed and photographed, but it's all good now! The preforms in this batch are mine, the rest however, belong to my rock club. I was asked to polish a 2.5 gallon bucket of rainbow (and other sheens) that is for something in next years rock show in March. This is being done in trade for something very special that my son needed help with (Posted later when it's finished!). This is 1/4 of the bucket (taking a short break after this batch to do something else... but have the summer to get the whole bucket done!) Whole batch: Some close-ups....first is gold sheen: Rainbow: Silver Sheen: More Rainbow: Another Silver: And a last Rainbow: I think I've become obsessed with obsidian, too many surprises and treasures....it is always different every single time!!!! Thanks for sharing your time with me! ~Krystee

Hey, for getting the title of Miss Obsidian you don't need tiara. You need slury covered hands instead of gloves Adrian

Do you do this all rotary, or is a vibe involved? What are your steps?
