A nice piece of Noreena is like a sandwhich,and a bowl of hot soup on a chilly day.
i take it to 600 wet
then 1200/3000 dry...the stone will heat up some..i think thats what makes it shine..
now...back to my soup,

That is a gorgeous heart! (drool)

"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."

Great polish! I love that material but have only finished very large bookend size chunks. If I can find my display piece (41lbs) I well get a photo. I will show this to Glenn the person who mines this material every few years. This is exceptional work. Thanks for posting it.
