Howdy folks.. Just got back from a strenuous four hour horseback ride down the canyons and am too tired to do much else so here are some pics of what I cut yesterday *S*....Mel First I had to sharpen the saw because the last rock kept climbing the blade so here are the Devil's Toenails slabs I cut to sharpen up the blade. Not a very fancy piece but solid and what the heck, it puts a god edge on a blade. Closer look at a slab: Sort of ehh wood from south Texas: And finally, some real nice shrinkwood slabs:

The shrinkwood is very nice! However I don't think your S.Texas wood looks so "eh"! I think it looks very nice too & will look beautiful polished!
