The larimar is awesome, but I am partial to atlantisite. Wickedly soft though. I've never had any luck with larimar. It always crumbles.

The larimar is awesome, but I am partial to atlantisite. Wickedly soft though. I've never had any luck with larimar. It always crumbles. Thanks Tela. I’ve cut a bit of serpentine so I figured atlantasite would be similarly soft and was prepared. You can’t even blink with it on the wheels though, or it will be game over. I’ve finally figured out how to work larimar, but it’s awfully slow. It used to crumble on me too, until I started shaping it all on my 280 soft. I’ll cut a preform, then it’s all 280. Ugh. But it holds together. Seems like the vibration of the more aggressive wheels is at least part of the culprit. I don’t know. Just my experience.

Excellent cabs! The atlantasite is my favorite. The cab's shape and pattern go together so well that it looks as if you captured a portion of some repeating, interlocked, green and violet S-shape pattern. At least that's what it looks like to me.

The Atlantisite is the swan of the family.

I like how you see things in cabs that I don't until I see it through your eyes!
