After seeing the dino bones on the site,I pondered if I should cut this dino bone I have....After much thought,I figured I would shave it,than display it... It's part of a vertebrate.......Not to shabby looking after I finished it out...Just have to give it a polish now... Before..  After...     |

Cool. That last one with the translucent cells is nice. It's fun to find color in them too.

I have some big verts but the spinal chords are missing. I like how yours in first pic you can still see the the spinal chord. Good stuff. And the fact you found it yourself. Even gooder.

Nice one, Mike! Amazing when you think how long that's been just sitting around, waiting for you to find it!

I think it's great that you shaved it. After enjoying it one way for 23 years, you can now enjoy it in another way! We enjoy it too, thanks for sharing!
