Hey Snuffy, what's the problem ? She gave it to you. Now it's yours to do with as you see fit.
Nice bunch of pet palm you have there. Looks better in that display case than a bunch of womens nic nacks would.

Jean It hasnt busted through yet.The 8 1/4 in thick glass shelves weigh at least 120 lbs.Probably over 200 lbs rock and all.All evenly balanced.That old furniture was well built. snuffy |

Great display Snuff! That's a high priced piece of furniture as well. You earned every bit of it by helping move. I hate moving and it seems one of my kids or grandkids are always moving somewhere.

Beautiful cabinet! And what a display of palm wood! You have some large pieces in there, how did you polish them? Looks too big for the Lot-O.

Bill, I run a Lortone 12 lb'er in polish every now and then for the larger rocks that dont fit in the Lot-o.My wife came home today and liked it!  snuffy

That is a great looking display. The new shelves you put in worked out pretty cool. Now you've added an extra step to your tumbling: an evaluation of each batch to determine if any of the rocks are "display worthy" and which rock is getting booted out of the display case.

Holy smokes Snuff, that's a heck of a palm collection. Nice display shelf too. Now we need closeups of a bunch of your favorite palm specimens from the shelf *hint hint*....Mel
