It is a big one!! I can only handle about 1 hour of carving at a time. Anymore than that I start making mistakes. Thanks everyone for your kind comments

Susan, I can hardly wait until you cut that windowed one I gave you!

Ya did great on it!

I can only handle about an hour of carving too before I need to stop for a bit and do something else, I look real pitiful trying to get off my stool and stand up if I go any longer

Looks very different from the regular Fire Agates you usually show. Like to see a lot more of these from you.
