I love how the first one goes from dark at the edges to lighter on the inside but I just gotta tell ya that last piece is outstanding! That is one gorgeous piece of coral! Is that a slab or a hunk of it?

I need to cut it smaller on the 18. It is about as big as a dinner plate and about 2 inches thick. Let me mess with that stuff. I figured people would want it.

So i collected a good bit of it. i will round up the stock and cut some. And send you some picks.

Folks, imagine that botroidyly beauty mounted like this:

The put that on a display table. Fabulous!

edited to add: the steel used in this mount is very special. I call it "price-iron" because you can only get that quality of steel in Jim's backyard.

rocknrob: There was a shop in Portland, don't know if it's still there called Kenny and Zukes who made the absolute best pastrami sandwiches I have ever had. The problem is every restaurant thinks their sandwich is worth $20 now and seldom makes the grade. Nov 12, 2024 9:53:31 GMT -5

rocknrob: So, to end my thread on sandwiches. If you find your sandwich worthy of that price by all means keep going to that restaurant (chewie)
