I like very much the Montana (?) in the left side and the lacey pendant in the right side of the picture. Adrian

I really like the inside curves. Probably because they are almost impossible to do on my machine and you did excellent on them. Jim

How do you drill into the gemstone and where do you get the top part? (I'm a new rockhound)

Jukerocks, generally speaking, jewelry bits are all called "findings" (that confused me for a while) - on a pendant the part that I bought is called the bail.

I got these locally in a jewelry supply store, but I know some kinds of the findings are for sale on therockshed.com

In this case, after vibratory-tumble polishing I roughed the back with my diamond wheel and used an epoxy to glue these on.

There is a set of instructions on drilling somewhere around here, if I find it I will post a link. Welcome to the forum!

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)
