It's supposed to get upwards of 100 degrees today, so I got some cuts in this morning before I couldn't see past the sweat dripping in my eyes! LOL

The first four materials came from aDave . The first two are Stoney Creek Jasper. The third is Graveyard Point Plume Agate. Fifth and sixth pictures are Holt Canyon Agate...gorgeous orange and red moss in this piece.

The last couple are some Gary Green Jasper or Freedom Jasper from my sister. The dealer said it was Gary Green...but I don't know that I believe this is "old stock". How about the "ORBS" in that last piece.

Thanks Jim!

I'm probably going to mark out some shapes on these tonight and will likely cut some preforms tomorrow. I'm not really big on being patient! LOL

I like the GYP, but the Holt has some great moss. I'm glad to see you could get one or two slabs out of that stuff.

Yeah...I wasn't sure if I was going to get anything out of either of those! LOL (For everyone else...they're massive rocks! LOL)
