In my searching for replacement slabs I wandered over to Stoneview. Clint and Gale sent some great stuff that will keep me busy for a while! Polish Flint because Larry said to try some Velvet Obsidian because I had to see if it worked as well as Krystee says... Tube agate because it looked fun Dendritic Opal? That is incredible!!! Blue Mountain Jasper A nice piece of Brazillian And some Luna Blue agate Great slabs and I'm looking forward to working with some different materials! Thanks to Clint and Gale for these as I'm looking forward to having a lot of fun working them up! Cathy

I've never heard of dendritic opal. It is stunning, and the Blue Mountain Jasper shows lovely scenery. I see fun in your future...

Nice lab, the Blue Mountain is killer. Where is it found?

Clint has some beautiful slabs! Just remember, the flint can chip and undercut when you start working it but once you get a good bevel on the edges, it works fantastic! Very hard and gets a great shine! You are going to love all of those! Fran
