Nice job on those cabs! My favorite is the chrysocolla.

"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."

Was it your first one? They can be tricky to work, but looks like you had no issues.

Thank you guys! Glad you enjoyed!

rockjunquie this was the third Sonora cab that I have made. I was surprised that the stone is hard.

My first cab was the endcut

The second became a ring.

The Leland blue is the nicest I have found...very few bubbles and no chunks of metal! DH plans to make a necklace and earrings.
