That fifth one (red and grey banded) is awesome. Is that a Botswana agate?

I'm with Chuck about #5. I was going to ask if it was a Brazilian, but what do I know?

OMG Ali very good queensland agates.
I have so many I can't wait to show. I've slowed down a lot here in the cold months and have half done and another half batch finishing, but waiting on me to do some saw work.

Nice! Agree on the Queenies. That 5th one is da bomb!
Also think taking that Montana to the wheels will really make it scream.

You got me wondering what happened to the other half of number 5, I looked through my slabs then the trays of cut ones, couldn't find it so went and cut a cab, I was putting the cab in my display cabinet and No 5 was staring at me, a special one that got the face polished and put on display, it's beautiful too.
Glad you could make it look so good.

Yep, #5 is definitely my favorite, they're all very nice though I like how you displayed them for the pics I'll have to try and get a little more creative in that area sometime, it really sets them off
