Thats one less saw Tony will have to pack up and haul back to Idaho this year.  And no more smashing rocks with a hammer to get them to fit in my 10" slab saw!  Yes, I have done that.

Highland Park 18"...awesome rock eating machine.  My rock pile better watch out!
Thanks Tony!

Nice score! Next time I'm out there, I know where there's a nice chunk of lilac agate stashed that will fit perfectly. :)

Did you tell him how poor you were so he would give you a good deal?

Of all the things I've lost..I miss my mind the most.

Whether you think you can, or you think you can't, you're probably right.

Tony always gives good deals.  And he threw in some oil to entice me.

And don't worry Gary, your Lortone is still in daily use around here. Got some Coyomito agate I'm dying to stick into the small saw right now.  Here it is in action this last week.  This stone may have gone in the big saw if it would've been here already.  I need to remember that if it fits in this saw its a good thing to use it.  The smaller kerf on the 10" blade means less stone waste.

Lookin' good! I've got a little ST-10 too - sweet saw. Though it's time to change the oil again and it's a messy job with that one.

The 18 looks great - happy slicing!
