Great cabs, only a few but the quality this month IMO will make for a KCC Don's pipeline canyon agate forum.rocktumblinghobby.com/post/694321 Tntmom's (Krystee) Sugilite with Richterite forum.rocktumblinghobby.com/post/697419 NM Stone Supply's (Jason) Picasso Marble forum.rocktumblinghobby.com/post/698169I was forced to neglect the contest a bit last month and did not get a chance to post Tommy's prize lot, so here it is. I sure wish I could have had a cab in an attempt to get some of this material. Thanks you again Tommy! Brecciated Jasper (Stone Canyon?) Spiderweb Jasper with agatey eye Mexican poppy Jasper Burris Creek Jasper (self collected) Sodalite Snowflake obsidian Pulga Jade(?) wood? Las Vegas/Henderson purple agate (rare) Good luck all!

Pulga Jade may be Verde Antique Marble. Scratch test proves me wrong.
Snowflake obsidian looks more like Chinese writing stone.
I haven't kept up with these cuz I don't do cabs. But this months is awesome! Good luck everyone!

I think the votes say all about the beauty of all the three cabs.

Delay is on my hands on this one, but we just arranged to do a prize for all, Tommy has offered to throw in some extra on top of his original offer and forward it to me, I will then top up the boxes a bit from my stuff and ship. Jason, I know you just offered to pass, but do you have plenty of Labradorite? I could maybe do a personal pick from our stuff? Great work everyone, I still chuckle looking at the poll Carleton

The latest delay was on me btw. It took me forever to panhandle enough money to get the box to carleton in Canada :-)
