I rushed on home from work today to get in some quality cutting time lol. There's a few Brenda chunks that's been calling my name and I simply couldn't ignore them any longer First I did a larger piece to practice rotating as I cut: This one had some really nice green in it: Dang'd if I didn't drop one of these slabettes setting up for a pic! This was a cool little nodule: How do you like yours done? lol Finally thought to put something down for scale And just to dull my blade a little I sliced off a slab from a chunker of carnelian I got at Quartzsite a few weeks ago: Thanks for lookin'
