This one will become a wire wrapped pendant for John's daughter in exchange for the coral he sent me. Pretty awesome stuff! Tisbury coral Dinosaur bone I received in a trade for some wrapping. Three little Fairburns that I was sent to cab & pick out the best one for a ring for a custom order. He likes the most colorful & smallest one best. Will certainly be challenging but a lot of fun! Feather Ridge, first I've done of this material. Got some more to work on, as this was just a tester. Boulder Opal, this was just a little piece, very oddly shaped with a little bit of opal on the top of it. Recycled beer bottle! Okay, don't laugh. Did a trade with someone who does glass blowing. His buddy melted a bunch of beer bottles just messing around to see if they would melt even, as a molten form that they could reuse to make blown objects with. It work so well, but they could make cabs with it so he sent me a piece to play with. I think it's pretty cool. Would be really cool if they did it with a bunch of different colored bottles to get swirls of color!

I got about $90 of the Feather Ridge, but have only found a few bits that might cab.

They're all nice Donnie thanks for showing them. I especially like the opal and the photo itself - very nice work with the camera.

Nice Donnie! I like the BO best!
I bought a couple feather ridge slabs too but haven't tried anything with them yet. There is a lot of druzies in mine. Did it work up good?
