this is a large mix that just came out of polish today, the photos are a bit washed out/over shadowed as i was running out of daylight, they all shine a bit better than the photos show. her is the overall pic, a bit fuzzy, sorry:  i separated the lot into groupings of similar kinds and colors, ther is a little bird and a little hedgehog in there (standing on their heads in this shot:    the stuff above the "line" is local to these parts, more granite and a few interesting idonnos. speaking of idunnos, any idea what this stuff might be?   these came from a slab i got from Brett, in fact quite a few of these limited groups are all originally from Brett. also some mix and matches and redos that were waiting to go. there is some green quartz in there from Banjo.... lots of holes to drill now....

Great colors KD. One of these days, I'll have something
to show, hope they look half as good as yours.

PS .... question KD. Since you cut your pieces into various shapes, do you find that this cuts done on the amount of time needed in 60/90?

KD,
Beautiful! Still in-love with the crazy lace as always, the grey metalic stones are really very pretty (ones from Brett) and I love the green quartz from Banjo. If there's a stone that is turning out the best for me...it seems to be the green quartz.

i think i am just going to invent names for rocks i don't know, Cookie.......that is orange sherbet quartz.....maybe that is shrimp cocktail agate....?
i don't have a clue really. it is fairly hard.
Cher, yes, preforming does tend to shorten the coarse stage, tho' with the harder stones, i still sometimes go a few weeks.....picky, picky me!
thanks for the kinds words and thanks for looking!
