Got tired of cutting Obsidian,so drug out a few eggs... Nice RR Triple .. A nice Pony Butte "moss"......A healed fracture in the egg,might just slab it and cab it.. Nice Succor egg............. Nice RR double.... A RR double,the cap was missing,but found it,cut it and will glue it on the egg....(My favorite cut of the day) Nice RR single....

When you cut eggs like that, how to you know where to cut. Is it just pure luck, or are there markers to ensue maximum yield.

Most have a natural marker that you go by.........Follow the agate,with the blade,so to speak... Sometimes I will cut an egg Horizontally,instead of equatorial and get a different setting all together...That is a 50/50chance that its a bust,but when its right,they really "POP"!!!! I guess that's why T/E's are on my top 3 list of favorite rocks...
