Bob The pictures I picked up were quick random just to get a few quick pictures. The faced sample soes have a couple of fractures but on a whole this material is fracture free. The downside is it will absorb oil when cut. Soaking it in water MAY help. It will take a great polish but you have to be careful with it. The material inside the eyes is softer than the rest and will undercut if polished to long. I have found Zam on a muslin wheel works best FOR ME. A twenty pounder will have to go in a LFRB. I have a couple in mind just setting here. I will clean them up and let you know. Don

Hello Don, My kitchen floor is covered with wet rocks! I opened the boxes - with help from my grandson. We are very impressed! If you still have two boxes pm me and I will send the paypal this evening. Thank you, Randy.

Well I knew you would like it. Most of the pieces in your boxes were cut this winter. If I do have two boxes it will be material from the same area but in the past couple of years. I will look and PM you. Don
