I see a great cab in every slab. Cant ask for more than that. I like variety so the small slab boxes like that are perfect.

I am pretty sure the online aquaintance is going to be both pleased, and a tad nervous working with this mix. It is very nice! I hope I can do it some justice I now have a pretty wide ranging mix of materials to "play" with and most of the right tools to work it. I sincerely hope I have decent skills to cab.. Thank you Daniel!

That is a great cabbing mix! Something for every taste it looks like. Someone is going to be happy they made your aquaintance!

Thank you Daniel, these look even better in person! I have been messing with my "new" saw most of the weekend and possibly into next weekend as well. Once I have that wrapped up I will start seeing what I can do with these beautiful slabs!

That is not just a "nice' set of smaller slabs...it's wonderful! Who wouldn't be tickled pink to have these to work with. Thanks for sharing just what wonderful things are out there if you are lucky enough to find them.
