I've got really agile hands because I used to take piano lessons and now I cab lol. I was really happy with the shine too. |

If your cabs could play a song on the piano, it would be Für Elise...and not Chopsticks!  Great looking anniversary cabs Perk! I think your second cab is Stoney Creek Jasper. |

Nice cabs, and happy anniversary.
On the topic of agile fingers, even at 300+ lbs my fingers were slender.

Happy early anniversary! Glad to have you, of course- skinny fingers and all.
Nice cabs, BTW. I like the stone canyon. How big are they? They look 30mm ish.

Thank you! The shape like kinda got messed up on the Stony canyon but it is (roughly) 30 by 22 and the opal is very roughly 25 by 16 I think. I'm glad you like the cabs. I'm getting slowly getting better lol. -Nicholas |

Thank you. I'm slowly getting better at making them. Just got to practice more. Maybe I'll put some air conditioning or a fan in the garage. It's super hot around here. How about up by you? -Nicholas |

I like the looks of the stuff, but I hate the work that goes into it. I couldn't get a good polish on it, so I might bring it to the club and see if they have some ZAM to get a better polish. I was shocked the polish turned out so good on the obsidian because I polished it with diamond, not cerium. Thank you so much! I was real happy with how these materials turned out because I haven't had much success with them before. -Nicholas |
