Don't take any advice from me! I just cut some of the white off and threw them in the vibe until I could see some color. Eventually, I will use a rotary tool to contour the fire and will probably finish some in the vibe. I do think these articles are helpful - Fire Agate & Fire Agate 2This is as far as I have taken it.    Looking forward to seeing how you finish yours! |

Love Marshall Tucker, but I'm a little impartial to the Dead version. <img src="//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/bbcode/video-preview.png" video="<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/YAhEi7W1ib0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>" alt="Video Preview"> It would be a lot cooler if I could get the video to embed! Not sure what I did wrong. |

Did you use the insert video function? The YouTube URL was good, had to do with what you did afterwards.
Great song, BTW!

I used the insert video function, pasted the URL, used the default size, and hit enter. The box with the "video will appear here" was visible and when I hit create post, the box went away and only the URL appeared. Advice? |

When I put the link in the insert video function, I never even bother specifying the size. I just enter at that point. This is what the link looks like (minus the "*"s) . Had to put that so I could post it. [*video src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/YAhEi7W1ib0"][/video*] |

Nice piece, and good size too. Working on about 7 right now, but besides taking it slow, nothing really to recommend.    |

Nahhh, just a matter of practice and a lot of luck.  Currently, I'm trying to combine fire with chalcedony surrounding. I find a lot of interesting material gets cut in order to chase fire only. Hence, my FCC entry looking to me like "sleet", iced over.  |
