agate-eyesz.tumblr.com/post/138423071272 slabs will be sold in groups and prices will vary. For now this seems to be the easiest way for us to sell the slabs. We've got plenty of inventory and once we get a bit more familiar with everything then we can change things up. This group is $130.00 your getting killer stuff, lots of color and design. You'll get awesome cabs  shipped sfrb which buyer pays for the shipping

What thickness are the cuts and are they an even thickness all around?
Would be helpful to have a yardstick or some sort of ruler in the group shots to get an idea of size. Just an idea.
Very nice groups and prices are about right.

Very nice groups and prices are about right. Chuck well for the most part yes, they are even throughout. There may be a few that are slightly thinner at the edge. For the most part though Steve gets a nice clean cut. Each cut is 4 to 5 mm thick |

This thread went silent. certainly beautiful content in the slabs shown. Just my 2 cents but the 4-5 mm thickness took me out of the running on these. I really like a full 1/4" thick slab when possible. Just my preference and that would lead me to buying some of the rough and slabbing it myself.

I prefer to cut my own anyway. I was just hinting toward what might be the cause for the lack of bites on your slab groups. Don't take my word for it. Let some others chime in before you change anything. It has to either be the price or the thickness because they are great looking. Chuck |

We wondered why no one has responded on those yet we've had orders for slabs we've picked at random. Honestly we were not aware that many like working with the thicker cut slab. We will make adjustments thank you, enjoy the day Don't burn the day... Away |

What's your preference as to colors, patterns etc? Well looks like we've got some minor adjustments to make and I'm guessing someone may be in the cutting room already in full adjustment mode haha... |

Thanks for being so responsive to suggestions! I have yet another - could you include a ruler in your future photographs to help get a sense of scale?
I'm fine with thinner slabs and off-cuts, but my limitation is slab size, as I don't have a trim saw and the wheels on my cabbing unit are very close together. Thus, I'm limited to <1.5" in the largest dimension. This might be a trick of perspective, but most of those seem too big for me to easily use.
