Thanks Jesse!  I know she "likes" the Brenda Agate, but I don't know if she likes it enough to "claim it"! LOL I can say with 100% certainty (this time) that the first one is actually a Fairburn and not a Teepee. It does have the olive-drab color to the outer part of that rock! I'm trying to buckle down and get as many cabs/wraps done as fast as I can...as soon as I reach 200 I'll start selling them...200 or thereabouts! LOL I wasn't sure the specific name of agate would put it over the top or not. If there was a Jesse agate, I would love to own one... I guess I might have to find a new style of agate to name before that will ever happen. Duh, I already knew that it was a beautiful Fairburn agate.  I have been so overwhelmed with the awesome amount of great Teepees you've been pouring out lately that I was on fortification autopilot. So I guess maybe having the cab machine would speed up the process to getting to the 200 line? If that's the case then I'm with everyone else in trying to push you over the edge to getting the Cadillac of cab machines. Good luck and keep em coming!! I was trying to push her in the direction of wanting that agate! She's funny. When I first started doing this, she said it wasn't really her style...but now that I've been doing it for awhile, I think she kind of wants one...but she won't say she does. I lost my psychic abilities years ago, so contrary to what she thinks, I can NOT read her mind! LOL Supposedly the cabbing machine really would eliminate a tremendous amount of time making the cabs...and it would probably save a lot of pain in the thumbs (which are absolutely killing me at the moment! LOL)...so, I really do know that there's going to be one getting here one of these days.  Oh...and there isn't a Jesse Agate that I could find...but there is a Jesse Red Rock Gravel...it's $35.99 per ton.   |

LOL, Jesse Red Rock Gravel, cheap just like me. I was thinking more along the lines of a lot of bang for the buck! |

WOW! Beauties! The Madagascar takes the stage for me. Adrian Thanks Adrian! I really like that one too! Yesterday I slabbed up the rest of what I have of that material. It's going to be hard to find some suitable spots out of that stuff for more cabs...unless I stabilize it. I think it deserves it...so, I'll set it aside for now and put it in the "To Stabilize" pile, that seems to be growing here lately. |
