Cleaned up another slab bucket tonight, I had to bring the bucket inside this morning and set it by the fireplace so it could thaw out so I could get the slabs out of the ice cube! All the slabs and some end cuts Morrisonite A couple of sphere blanks for Scot, this is Hells Gate pet wood Hells Gate pet wood slabs Black Feather plume Amethyst Sage Variscite A weird Graveyard Point agate that has sagenitic plumes in it Cripple Creek jasper A butt cut off of a chunk of Carey tube agate that I picked up tonight, more slabs to come later. The chunk is about 30 lbs. Thanks for looking..............Tony

Holly molly Tony you must spend a lot of time scrubbing slabs. But it is not as bad as washing dishes because you have something beautiful to look at when you are doing it. How many buckets now? Jim

Those are beauties Tony. Did you self collect that huge tube agate? I am surprised you let that variscite out of your sight to get cold, ha! It is gorgeous. Thx for sharing.

Drooling at the sight of all that variscite. Just about my favorite cabbing material! Thanks for the eye candy!
