Yes Rhodo definitely takes a lite touch. It is easier to cab it on my Pixie because it cuts slower then the Genie.

Been a loong time since I cabbed any Onyx but if my memory serves me well I am pretty sure that the Onyx is a harder than Rhodochrosite. Rhodo is pretty soft stuff you have to use a lite touch so you don't get any flat spots

Thank you everyone for your comments.

They work about the same. Great work, that cab is sweet!!

rocknrob: There was a shop in Portland, don't know if it's still there called Kenny and Zukes who made the absolute best pastrami sandwiches I have ever had. The problem is every restaurant thinks their sandwich is worth $20 now and seldom makes the grade. Nov 12, 2024 9:53:31 GMT -5

rocknrob: So, to end my thread on sandwiches. If you find your sandwich worthy of that price by all means keep going to that restaurant (chewie)
