Oooooooooo dang, there goes my keyboard again too. So beautiful even before anything is done with them. What is that blue one? It should be called the American rock, it's red, white and blue.

stoner the 1st 2 pics are red/white jaspers. the slabs were cut barely at an angle in the direction of the stripes. i got as far as i could go and needed to re-orient the rock so i'm going to turn it now and cut against the stripes which should pull the black in. the last 2 pics are the blue swirlstone.

And I thought the fall colors were great! I have a barrel full of that swirlstone in coarse now. It's shaping up nice after just a week. Thanx for bringing us so many great rocks Kim!

Kim! You just HAVE to give that top one to KD so you can get a clown fish or three made out of it!!  How many slabs do you think you could get outta that? Just imagine having three fish & tumbling the rest! Wow, that would be such a good idea, you should do that & send me one for thinking of it!!  |

lcars that red/white one was 10 lbs and it sold earlier this week. you could get alot of slabs from it. i'll keep my eye open for another one that red and white and get kd some slabs for a clown fish. it really would make a good clown fish.
