I totally agree with Pinolith and Indian Paint stone, yes the Pinolith is a pain, DON'T DROP it lol! Your photography is showing fantastic detail on the cabs but the wood background is distracting. A pretty background but distracting

Thanks for the advice Julie, maybe I'll try something different for a background next time...
As to be expected, one day in the vibe wasn't very nice to the paint stone and the pinolith.
Oh well, live and learn!

Yeah live and learn. I got an ultrasonic cleaner to help get the drusy vugs on agates clean. I was so excited after it worked on a cab that I put about 5 others in it and then ripped the surface off a number of softer materials. OOPS.

I'm not throwing it in the tumbler again. But you know what, I kind of like the way it looks, undercutting and all!
