I have been slabbing some stone that I have had for a long time but did not think that it was very good. Nice surprise. Some of it is the best stone that I have slabbed to date. All drying I really like the red, pink and white. Really nice druzy edge I was told what this is but I can not remember. I just turned 65 so I will use the senior excuse. If anyone would like some of this stone it is for sale cheap. Thanks for looking and hope you enjoy Jim

Very cool slabs. How thick do make your slabs?

There are some very pleasing colors in your slabs. Lets see some cabs from them. Don

Except for some small agates all of my slabs are cut 1/4 inch or five turns on my saw slider. The small agates I slice at about 3/16 inch so I can get more cabs out of them. The 1/4 inch makes it easy to cut a groove around my cabs and still have enough room for a dome.
rocpup. Look in the cab section. there are two cabs made from these slabs that turned out pretty good. I really like the red, pink and white. Jim
