Here is the link to my photobucket, please check out my opal wood collection and let me know what you think. A few months ago I didn't even have a single piece of petrified wood. I found a few pieces of wood opal and pretty soon my whole porch was covered in different kinds of petrified wood. All of this was found in Sierra co. New Mexico. s1301.photobucket.com/user/Nmchris/library/?sort=3&page=1

They are real nice. I like this piece the best: And I really like your cabs, did you do those yourself?

Thanks for checking out my pics! That piece is one of my favorites too. I found it along with the other smaller yellowish piece next to each other. They are very unique and I've not found any other with those colors. I did make those cabs, they are the first few I ever made. I just got a lortone a few months ago, just so I could cut some of this wood I've been finding. that black tringular cab is made of vein opal it's not wood. All the others I made from different pieces of wood I found. I am finding the wood in little patches. Each patch I've found is opalized different and has different colors. So even though it looks like the same kind of wood, there is alof of variations in color in it.
