Man I love that Pietersite, it's just gorgeous. What kind of beads are those blue ones, the color is beautiful. I can't get over how well it matches the stone.

thanks, ladies. those beads are very economical ones called "Druk" that i got from Fire Mountain. they come in all manner of colors and look "rich" but really aren't.

The Mexican Lace is tasty...looks like a northern New Mexico field in the Fall, or a great big plate of corn and cheese enchiladas. Trade me for something, KD... ;D S

the finished work goes in waves, like tumbling, isn't it....i have twelve stones on dop sticks waiting to be processed. i need to order more cheater mounts. i did some sawing today, got some REALLY nice slices from a piece of rock steveholmes sent to me.
it's a long slow process to finally get a stone to the "match with bead" stage. and there are some that simply go on a chain..
i'm hoping to have enough for presents this year and have some to sell (hopefully) to keep me in rock, sawblades and grinding wheels for the next year, thanks,
KD

You do some nice work KD. The people on your list don't know how lucky they are.

ps. That goes for the ones on your other threads also. I haven't been on the boards much lately so I'm trying to catch up.
