Boyfriend got some gorgeous coconut geodes awhile back from riverbendlapidary, yep, he's on RTH here.
I won some through ebay shortly before Christmas. I even paypald what I thought would be close, that way if there was any chance, he could ship them asap so they MIGHT get here by Christmas.
He not only got them to me by Christmas, he refunded me some money for shipping!
He is awesome and his coconut geodes are great. 2 had amethyst and one is a gorgeous smokey quartz!

Hey Wolfden, I had looked at that arbor the day it listed and a couple questions came to mind.
What size wheels will it hold? Doesn't say in the listing and anyone that knows the arbor may may say "duh!" to my question, but will it take 8" or 10" wheels or only 6"?
Also, it may be an optical (photographic) illusion, but, the shaft doesn't look straight in either picture. The side without the nut looks askew to me. (?)
Just stuff I thought of when I first saw the listing...

FYI - alot of my large pics look kinda "bent" - it is a function of the lens. The gem drill I have listed looks a little bent too but it is not. I think this is meant to be mounted on a stand with the wheels hanging off the side, that way you can use whatever diameter wheel you want. The shaft dia. is 3/4". Ends are threaded, one side is missing a nut which should be easy to find at the hardware store. Shaft is 16" long, unit is 6 3/4" high and 5 1/2" deep... I'll get that shipping quote out to ya in a few minutes. Have a good one!

Wolfden - not bidding on this one, I just check the tools section a few times a day and noticed it when it listed. I am watching for a Poly arbor or two tho...
