My challange is for more colorful. Still don't know exactly how this is supposed to work, so, unless Fish tells us differently, we'll make it up as we go.

I guess we're making up our own rules, so how about two weeks, then we vote?

Tweet- What would you do with a cabbing machine? I'll tell you what- When I win the lottery and open my own shop- I'll keep you in mind-- Make sure that all the demo models get sent to you- OK?

Stefan a cabbing machine would mean that I would save the half hour drive each way to cab rocks! A whole extra hour! WOW! I'd make cabs of course! It would also mean that I'd be able to cab more often instead of once every few weeks  |

Yea tweet- but then the kids and hubby would be neglected  Hey you just gotta keep putting out feelers for a cabbing machine- ask the members of your club to keep their eyes open- keep checking here (that's how I got Sands- he decided to sell it and I jumped on it) maybe even ask the club if they plan on upgrading- if you could buy on of their old machines- If you want one bad enough you will figure out a way!) |

Hey Stefan,
I sure hope you come up with a cab. Doesn't look like anyone else is going to accept my challenge. I was hoping there would be several challengers.

I guess we're making up rules as we go, so a polished rock sounds fine to me.

That is so beautiful now Kim! Some of the colors kind of remind me of the vog stone. Did you use the templates that we ordered to cut out the shape?
