More cuts from the saw. I have been working some smaller stuff (too big for the tile saw). Lots of 1 and 2 cab slabs here. This is some Montana agate, Moss agate, a couple more crazy lace, and Blue Jasper I found a box of Burro Creek that has been sitting around for 16 years now. Nothing too impressive yet and most of it I'm just cubing up for the tumbler, but still fun stuff to cut> THis Burro Creek had great potential at first, but a couple cuts in and the pattern and color disappeared. Oh well I think I paid like 50 cents plus shipping (if I remember this came from a member who attended a Burro Creek field trip). I will most likely chunk up the rest of the Burro Creek stuff as I love the way it tumbles. Maybe I will find some better stuff in there.

THe black and white slabs are actually blue Jasper from the rock shed. They had it 6 or 7 years ago. THe blue (black) is very dark indigo color. some times there is red and green mixed in and I even had a chunk that had orbs. Material takes a great shine and is usually very solid.
