While waiting for the tumblers to do their thing, I wanted to make a display piece . Squared a piece of sarrappi ? jasper I picked up in Mexico ,(cut offs are in tumbler) trimmed one corner so it sits and spins on edge. Polished with the roto-blaster wet angle grinder , Pleased with the way it turned out , displayed on raw edged local jasper slab also hand polished. 
Thanks for looking .................Gary |

That's a mighty fine eye-catcher. Like that it is sitting?/standing? on a corner.

Beautiful piece and also beautiful way to display it on that cut corner. In fact, the way it looks makes me think that one is the only corner you did cut while working at it  Adrian |
