SWEEEEEEET!!!!...That dose look like jade..John Sometimes I just shake my head wondering where some of the things in my mixed batches came from and what the heck they are. It does force me to learn though. Chuck

Awesome job as usual. My favorites are the one the left in the 5th picture (Is it a Bahia agate?), the Montanas, the Birdseye, the red one next to the birdseye and the one in the second to last picture.

I love the bottom right banded laker in the fifth picture. I was wondering if it was a Botswana agate before I saw your comment that it was a Laker.

Those are a fine collection of shiny rocks. The green stuff in the last pic. is identical to "Applegate Jade", found in S.W. Oregon and N. W. Cal. I can't get a really good polish in a tumbler either, but shines up nice on a wheel.
