Very nice, is that some kind of special tiger eye? Where does it come from? Amber

Thanks bud, I'm really liking this stuff, fun to work with! It does make a mess of the Genie though.

Thats a beauty with great depth, pattern and shine. It has an awesome mountainous scene in that pattern.

Great cab! Did you find and differences in hardness or a need to sand it in a specific direction? I have a couple pieces and I've been stalling doing it for fear of problems. Bob

The chunk that I've been cutting from is some great material, with an even hardness all the way around. I've been sanding (with Nova wheels) in all directions, no problems at all. I've done 4 cabs so far, all have smooth, even domes (no soft spots) and a great shine.

Beautiful, perfect oval, great shine and it seems it's pictural, too.

That's a beaut! I bet it has some real flash to it as you rotate it. Does a high dome help with that?

I think that the high dome helps anything with any kind of effect under the light, this stuff especially.
