This is the one you are referring to Mike?

Being the lazy type I just adapt m/c's being used all the time in this case the 6" trim saw.
I have cut a thin piece of ply as the base to stop the blade wobbling and another bit of timber with 2 screws at the back as the stone guide and to give depth from the back.

Yep that's the one. I posted it after making one for myself. Works pretty well if you have the rotary tool.

Those are all excellent! The colors are so vivid! I really like groove-wrapped stones, but I don't have a machine to put the grooves in. I'll have to check out the homemade one.

Gosh those are gorgeous cabs. One thing I love about the groove wrap is it's simplicity & how nicely it shows off the stone! Will eventually have to figure out a way to do it myself.

All gorgeous pieces! Love 'em! I think my favorite though is the Blue Hills Agate Creek.
