The Owyhees didn't come out as planned. One fractured, one lost the better part of the pattern and one the pattern shifted and not how I estimated. The Owyhee rough had the pattern that looked like a tree and down the middle of all but one slab there was a healed fracture. The one I started with was partially healed and didn't hold together.

Morgan Hill, Blue Mountain (an example of bad roi. I was hoping for two cabs from the slab and one fractured so not a good return), Mescalero, Deschutes. I did ok on roi on the rest.

I'm glad the Mescalero came out good. The slab I cut it from was fracture free and I got 3 preforms. The seller had a larger slab that looked like the slab this cab was made from so I bought it.
