I haven't posted any slab shots in a while and had my camera with me when I was digging around in my slab boxes. Serendipity. Black plume agate  Cathedral Agate  Youngite - these are from different pieces of rough  Turqouise   Pet Wood - anyone know this type?  Bird of Paradise 1 (?)  Bird of Paradise 2 (?)  Louisiana Sand Opal  Neat Brazilian - I cut three slabs with this pattern   and I cabbed one    |

Those are great slabs, The cab is amazing. Is the sand opal the same as concrete opal ?

I like the black plume and cathedral agate, but that second bird of paradise is special. Great cab too!
