Hi all Just a couple of small groups to go. Fair warning, I'm already starting on some new material. We finally got our winter and it makes the garage a little chilly 4 days out of five, but when the sun shines I'm there. Good days to run the slab saw, though. The cabs: Broadhead agate from Utah Cady Mountains, self-collected Crazy Lace Dead Camel Graveyard Point Green Moss Agate from India Mexican Moss Agate. The vendor told me this was from the Cathedral Agate deposit. He said the classic Cathedral comes off the surface and the more common moss is below it. The colors are similar enough. The blue is a little stronger in the hand than in the picture. As you can tell from the reflection of the light at the top, there is some undercutting. San Carlos Moss from Mexico. Lots of depth and interlocking layers of different shades of gold moss. Just a few more later. Thanks for looking. Craig

Beautiful cabs. That first crazy lace just about blew my socks off -- gorgeous!

Beautiful cabs, I like the dead camel. Looks like an abstract landscape painting.
