Go to Walmart in the plumbing section get some Super Iron Out Mix 1 1/2 cups to a gallon of water OUTSIDE in a dark plastic container with a lid put it OUTSIDE in the Sun. Wash all the dirt of the rocks and put them in. Check them in a couple of days and they should be looking good if still stained put them back for a few more days. Always wear rubber gloves and when you get them out have a bucket of clean water there and put them over in it. A good rule is if you soak them in SIO for 3 days soak them in the water for the same time. This is what we use to use to clean the Iron stain off of Crystals it works great.

I have a LOTS of rough that I use for the scales but not many that I can cut that many pieces that will be close to matching.

Well back to the drawing board! Material breaks to easy when I cut it thin enough for scales. Going to try some Aventurine now.

I had a friend of my daughters that is getting married this fall call me today and ask if I would make 5 knives and 5 pendents all matching for gifts for their groomsmen and bridesmaids! She is very sweet(one that can bat her eyes and smile and you will agree to do anything) and with out thinking I said sure I will be glad to do them! I checked and I have five 3 blade trapper knives with scroll work so now the problem was finding enough matching slabs to get that many scales and pendents from! I picked a chunk of Leopard Jasper so far seems to be good solid slabs. Now to get to cutting I guess all my free time just went away!
