Good job on your first cabs. Is the polishing head on a drill or drill press? I'm using those 4 inch Velcro backed polishing pads chucked up in a drill press. I just dip the stones in water in the bucket

Good looking cab Lunk! I like the pattern that came through on that one...and the shape is really great.

Thanks everyone for looking. My daughter has already claimed it and added it to her collection.

Nice! You may have a little facet there on the top right in the last picture that you might want to smooth out. Other than that - great job!

Look at you go Lunk! I've only made a few cabs that small. I know they're supposed to be easier (definitely faster) to work...but I just tend to want to go bigger. My hat's off to you on this one!

Thanks for the compliments everyone. I'm pretty happy about my progress. And yes I feel a twinge of addiction.

My dad pointed out the barbed wire going through the middle of this one I hadn't noticed it.
