I bought some finished multi-colored Fordite cabs from board member Christopher 1234. I was happy with them. He's in Bakersfield, CA.

Alisha sorry it took so long to get to you could only find an old card from Ron Inden (Larimar Int.). His web site is not working this is old phone No. 815=857-4101.He is a great guy and knows alot about rocks as he has been selling rocks for over 30 years. George

If I recall, fish picked up quite a bit of it at the estate sale last month. Wonder if he'd care to part with a piece or two? Jean

Hi, I'm brand new to the forum but not new to lapidary. I'm looking for Fordite rough ; Ebay is too limited for the variety ( in appearance )I need as there are only a couple of sellers.

I would be willing to sell some but I am not sure if there is a minimum post count in order to sell on this board.

I would love to get some of that fordite if the price is right. Are you willing to trade for some NM candy Rhyolite? Jason

I'm looking, but I'm only interested in material from the late 1950's through 1970. If that is what you have , please contact me.
