Hi folks! Yesterday I got the time and a little motivation and shoveled enough shhhtuff out of the way to reach my slab saw. Finished up on a nice rock I had found several years back and had started cutting last June before life got in the way.

anyway here’s one of the slabs fresh off the saw from yesterday..

Here's pics of the rock when I found it out in the wild back in 2007

On the saw last June

And some of the earlier cuts from last summer

Couple back lit shots

Thanks a bunch for looking! (thumbs-up)

It's interesting seeing the color changing the farther you cut.

A wowzer, for sure!

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."
