That Mexican lace looks like fish-eggs! And the Polka Dot is so beautiful! Such a crisp color contrast! Adrian Of course it does, it's actually Mexican "Caviar" Lace!   Thanks Adrian!  |

Oregon polka dot agate. You can still go out to the mine and dig it.

I like the contrast of the natural edges of the Condor versus the man made polish of the dome.

I think picking the "live edge" theme for the cab contest this month has really made me start looking more carefully as to when a natural edge can be utilized, or when the stone is kind of "asking for it". |

Love the cabs, but the followup descriptions and comments are the gold. I learned a few things in this thread.
Now I want to know what music you will listen to when you finish wrapping? Rap, twist, heavy metal, alternative or (poor me, I'd rather be cabbing) blues?

Rap, twist, heavy metal, alternative or (poor me, I'd rather be cabbing) blues? Thanks Greig! LOL - I only listen to music while I'm cabbing. If I'm wire-wrapping, I do it at the kitchen table my workbench...so it's in front of the living room TV. If my wife's up, she has something like 90 Day Fiancé on...so I feel the need to add my commentary about the stupidity. I can tell she appreciates it from the eye rolling and deep sighs. Once she goes to bed, I'll put on some movie I've seen a bunch of times, so I don't have to watch it, just listen to it. I can't listen to music since I don't like any of the apropos genres you mentioned! LOL |

jasoninsd Oh no, 90 day fiancé. Your wife watches that too? My gf watches that show 😂. However I’ll admit, I do get a kick out of that guy Gino who’s dating the gal in Panama.

LOL - I feel SO ashamed to admit that I know exactly who you're talking about! Every time he laughs, it makes me bust up! LOL - I swear they're all idiotic on that show! |

What’s sad is that poor dude is totally getting had for his money. Yep! Nearly every one of those people are being taken for money or a green card. How they don't see it...or why they're unwilling to admit it to themselves is completely beyond me! |
