Theme agates chosen by prior months winner rockoonz All hand made cabbing techniques may be used. Cabs entered must be hand shaped (can be finished in a tumbler but please note if so) and be completed by the last minute of the month in your timezone. They can be started before the month but only finished during the month. You must have 1 photo of ether a preform or slab of the rock. You can enter 1 cab with a up to 3 individual finished piece (not combined) photos of the cab, 2 extra photos will allocated for stones that have color play due to light or fluorescence or equivalent special characteristics (not polish). 1 of the 3 normal photos will be used for voting and if your stone has special characteristics 1 photo from that as well. Please note which photo you would like to use for voting. Voting is a fun way to see what cab folks like the most. Before voting you can change your photos or improve your cab (rework spots especially if you are asking for advice) and place new photos in your original post replacing old photos by the deadline. Please tell an approximation measurement of the legnth / width of the cab. Finished jewelry cabs may not be entered (unless otherwise specified by the theme). It is OK if there is a hole drilled in the cab without a jump ring, as long as there is no extras on the rock (wire, chord, etc.) All entries submitted to this contest must be unique to this competition (not submitted in several different competitions). Any duplicates will not be included in the voting list. Feel free to share with us the story behind your workings or material. Also, don't forget to include the name of the material. If a tie occurs in the voting the breaker will be whoever submitted the finished item first. If there are any questions feel free to ask. Beginners to old timers are welcome. If you would like feedback (constructive criticism) ask for folks to pm you if they wish to offer tips. If you are new and think your cab isn't too good but its the best you can do post it anyway, getting feedback is how i got to where i am now! Winner is allowed to chose theme for the month following voting. Winner must choose theme by the 10th after voting ends for the next month or a out of hat theme will be placed.

Since this invitation to the FCC was not posted until the 17th of September, and no one has entered a cab, how about rolling the theme over for October?
AGATES!!

I hear you, Jean, but we're still one month behind. I've closed the August voting, and it looks like rivarat was the winner for that month. I don't want to preclude his opportunity to pick a theme, so hopefully glennz01 will jump in an announce how he'd like to proceed for October. |

You're getting a little ahead of yourself, aDave . rivarat DID win August, however, Rockoonz won July. His theme should come next, and he picked agates for the next contest. The August winner should not come into play until after that. |

I think you should go ahead with whatever rivarat wants for October, and keep it the way glennz01 set it up. He's been real good with this contest and I'm sure that when he gets his internet sorted out he'll be able to host it again.In the meantime I have started one for October and I'll PM rivarat for his theme. If a moderator knows and wants to edit my post feel free. It's here forum.rocktumblinghobby.com/thread/89022/oct-2019-fcc |

I just looked at your link, and it's great you already started the October contest announcement.  When you receive word about the theme, Staff can certainly help out by editing the OP if you can't. |
