Thank you all for your very kind and very generous comments. Without exception, you all have been an amazing influence and each one of you have contributed to my learning process in this amazing hobby. I'm very grateful to each of you, and for the people who contributed some stunning entries this month, as well as every member of this forum. It's an amazing community of which I'm blessed to be a part.

Now...I promise that whatever theme I come up with for January won't be as hair-brained as the last one I picked! LOL

Yeah, yeah... just pick another crappy t-shirt and get back to work.

All jokes aside, I really liked the composition and execution of your entry - and it's the one I voted for.

Congrats - again - on another great cab.

It's been really cool watching the progression of the stones you've cut, and remembering how much "fun" it was when I was trying to figure out how to do this.

Congrats on a stunningly beautiful cab and deserving win, Jason!

Excellent job on all the cabs in this contest. They were all beautiful and worthy and made the voting difficult.

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."

dandresow: Thanks. Haven't done anything with rocks for years. Just fixed an older HP 18 inch and dug out a 10 inch and 18in Lortone and I have a couple of trim saws and need to make something to cab with. We stay broke and I only have enough to put oil in 1 Dec 1, 2024 16:49:20 GMT -5 *
