Besides the lace agate I entered in the KCC heres a few others to come off the wheels in the last few days.

A group of stones requested by a friend.  2 cabs, gary green and red onyx.  And 2 polished slabs, more red onyx and a red jasper with quartz veins.


Closeups of the gary green and the red onyx cabs



A couple from Washington state was dealing in this stuff at Quartzsite this year.  They said it is serpentine.  I bought a few dollar slabs just to play around with because it had such beautiful green color.



Our club has a themed cab contest each month at our club meeting.  This month the theme is a cab in the shape of Nevada from a native Nevada material.  This material is Goldfield Rhyolite.

One down, 49 to go and they all have to fit together.

Sounds like a plan!  hide

Very nice!  I'm from Idaho originally -- that state shape's a bit of a challenge on the east side.
