This stuff is a gem! It's a hard material but works with ease as long as your wheels are up to it, and the shine is awesome! I received the coral from James a few days ago and agreed to cab it and give a report. Honestly, I love it! I finished this cab about 15 minutes ago..... Two slabs that I cut from a chunk that James said started out as a 10 pound chunk.... Preforms...... Cab... I did the preform on the left from the pic above. This doesn't even show half of the shine....

Awesome cab! Yes that stuff is hard! It laughs at my silicon carbide wheels!

that is real nice! I bet that stuff was fun to cab. I tumbled some of the heat treated stuff from James and its takes a shine nice and easy like an agate plus you cant beat the colors the heat brings out.

I like how the tip has the darker color and then it fades, cool effect!

Beautiful and unique! James sent me a piece of un-treated coral to whack on. It really chips off to a sharp edge, gonna slab part of it. Very solid stuff.
