rockyracoon, i intend to learn this soon [picture transfer and manipulation] but being a one man band is not for the wimpy . i was sent two materials in the big order that were not what they were supposed to be, the mugglestone was not mugglestone and after 3 sites i found out what it is supposed to look like , a book at the warner robins library on a floorlevel shelf , all but jumped into my hands well the same the rock ,same pattern in the order was there , it is brazilian jasper fascinating in it,s on right but not mugglestone, the other was supposed to be african banded jasper i got hickoryite instead, the hematite was ordered as 20 they could only sell me 34 pounds ,and were not going to ship my order until i callled their toll lfree and squeezed them... the only reason to order from these boneheads is variety, and price most wholesalers want you to order 50-100 lbs of each rock something i can not afford to do otherwise they would be on my fertilizer list if you catch my meaning . gemmaster
