I do not post here as often as I used to so many may not know me. Fire agate is my favorite stone to cut. Here is one I cut last week. I cut this out of Deer Creek fire agate rough.

That's a beauty, Christopher! Good to see you pop in.

"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."

-- C.S. Lewis
