But can you blame me, my first batch of cabs is in polish. Since I couldn't wait until next week I pulled one out and dried it off. I think they're going to be nice. π Thanks for looking!  |

There's nothing wrong with peeking, I tumble big loads and I always check 4 or five hands full every day. If I see any cracked or broken stones I hook em out for rework, also good for keeping an eye on bruising on things like Amethyst it's easy to modify your mixture and get it fixed before it ruins a batch.

And that particular one has some real suspense in it β it looks like some sort of mountain rising above the clouds. Betcha it'll go fast once it's finished.

Oooh! I think they're going to be very nice if that one is any indication.

Unfortunately ( or fortunately) I'm pretty sure that's my reflection you're seeing. I didn't notice it before I posted it. π But I do like the stone. |

It reminds me of the moon rising over the Devil's Tower. Very cool.

It reminds me of the moon rising over the Devil's Tower. Very cool. I wish. I'm the devil's tower in the background. π I usually try to pay a little more attention but I was distracted. It's still a cool piece but sadly no moon, no mountain. |

Mike, unfortunately you are going to have to capture your reflection in all future photos. Everyone is very impressed with your silhouette. It does look like Devil's Tower. Your piece is taking a nice shine, will come out a winner. Now quit peeking, they aren't going anywhere.  |

Oly a couple more days, I think I can do it... |

Note to self: wear clothes when snapping a pic of a reflective stone. LOL
Super nice result. I cannot wait for the pictures of the rest of the batch. Thanks for sharing.
