I have to get busy and finish the wiring on my home built sphere machine first. It's been on the back burner for a month or so, while I catch up on spring yard work.
That chunk of rock is big enough that I should get several nice slabs out of it, so don't give up hope. lol. ---- Don

What do the slabs look like?? I dont' think I've ever seen 'old old' lace like that before.

Hey Don, Don't forget about me.... Did it turn out to be red? Any chance we can buy some red from your friend? Thanks! Phil

I've only cut 2 slabs so far. We have a family crisis right now. My mother in law got caught up in a scam, and taken for about $30,000.00. Gonna be tied up with police, the bank and lawyer for a few days.
So far the first cuts are sort of ho hum, but color is starting to show up. I'll cut more in a few days and report on what I find.
No chance of getting any from my friend this year. He bought a couple chunks for himself, and a chunk for me and one other S.D. friend. He's playing snow bird now, andd will be heading south again this fall. Don
