Hi Jimmy, Wow, you're going to have some really awesome stones when they are all done. Can't wait to see that lace all finished.

Hey Jimmy- Good looking stones there!. I have been running some of that Arizona Agate and it is on its 3rd week and I am thinking its gonna hafta go two more. Man, some of this stuff is hard! I looks real good though. Glad you have the patience to keep it in the rough untill you're happy with it. I have had to learn to do that because I polish most always with titanium oxide, and if I don't get all the nooks and cranys smoothed out they hold the polish.

There is one piece of the crazy lace that really caught my eye, it looks like a raptor claw. They are shaping up nicely. Tami
