I hadnt either before got these. not bad stuff for $3 a pound. it cuts pretty easy and overall is pretty solid material. there is a decent amount of waste due to their rough shapes but that's probably reflected in the price tho. |

These are SOOOOOOOO awesome! What an amazing material! I've realized lately I "gravitate" towards rocks that are "busy" and have tons of stuff going on in them. Well, these definitely fall into that category! These are fun just to stare at for awhile! LOL

Well, these definitely fall into that category! These are fun just to stare at for awhile! LOL thanks man! yeah they definitely have a lot goin on. and vary quite a bit with every cut. even just the grinding brings out a lot of change in Colors and patterns. really fun stuff to work with! |

Beautiful cabs!
I really like all the variation in the patterns. Hadn't heard of it before and thanks for sharing! Now I have to buy some. Where did you get your rough?

Hot damn! Those are nice. I love the material - one of my favs, but you really know how to work it. Good on you- they're all out of the ballpark.

thank you! I got the rough from jhkalmore.com. it was $3 lb when bought it less than two weeks ago but was "on sale". think normal price is $4lb I was happy with my purchase from them. only other place I managed to find some for sale was thegemshop.com but for something crazy like $7lb. |

Quite amazing. Love those. I’ve been eyeing the material for a few years. Time to play with some.
I like all the cabs, but especially 5 and 6.
Edit: and 4 and 9.

oldschoolrocker- You're awesome (those are my words) - You're a bad influence (those are my wife's words!) I couldn't resist that price...I just placed an order for some of the Cold Mountain Thunderegg...and I then I really couldn't resist getting some High Grade Flor de Durazno Agate (Flower of Peach) Lace Agate along with it! ps...totally kidding about what my wife said...she doesn't know yet!
