Are you shaping them on your Flat Lap? (I'm guessing that is how the disc got fried?) Great work!

You know, besides being mostly agate, I have no clue what type of rock the colorful one is. The other is the red mexican lace of sorts.
Yes, using the flat lap for shaping, shaped them on the grinding wheel, that's what you see there, haven't sanded them yet in this pic. I blew the sanding disc out doing some other stones but the discs were already very used and old when I got them so I knew they wouldn't last
