A few more I did earlier this year. I'm all caught up with normal cabs. Time to start posting the doublets and opals I did earlier in the year. I did start cabbing at the new house but the machine is in the unheated garage so its way to cold to work most days. Time to start on building the basement shops. Unknown plume Another unknown. Phospherodite or something like that. Really really soft stuff. Couldn't touch it with the diamond belts without it turning black. Blueberry quartz (a fancy name for man-made glass) Cherry quartz, as as above Gabro Fossil coral Disaster Peak picture jasper Cheetah agate Fossil palm root Flowering tube onyx Forest fire agate

The first, the coral and the forest fire are my favs, but they are all great cabs and an interesting group. I had some phosphosiderite- stuff was hell to cab. The softest of the soft.

That's a great set, Tony. I like the second one best - reminds me of looking through the trees at blue sky.

Great cabs Tony, I need to find a slab of palm root. It is a very cool looking material.

Wow, Tony, nice batch. I think I like the Blue Berry and the Cherry best for the shapes, but the Cheetah is nice too. Tony

2nd one is my favorite! It looks like there might be a druzy pocket in there
