Howdy folks, had to clean out the UV-10 so I could put in a load of forty two cabs for sanding. Most today's tumble batch was just average stuff but here are some pics of some of the more interesting stuff. thanks for looking....Mel My old favorite that the ranch kids love too, Flint Ridge Flint: And of course, more Lavic Siding area jasper: Some cool blue Mexican T-eggs from old Lowell: Woodward Plume: And, a bunch of slabettes from my cutting and Stonesthatrocks goodies box: Closer shots of some of the more fun ones: Clockwise from top: Morgan Hill Poppy, Lavic Moss, Hauser beds Jasper, Woodward, Laguna and another Laguna in the center: Clockwise from top: Baker Ranch egg slice, MOctazuma Agate, Cady's Moss, Dying lace Agate ( Chinese writing lace), Dryhead Agate and another dying lace:

Great varied batch! I just got some of the flint--after looking at yours, I guess I'll be trying it next.

Mel, Does the top center (dark red) flint in the first pic have almost an "iris" to it, or is that the reflection of the light fixture above? Either way, all nice lookin' stuff!

I always forget that the flint can be pink also and they all look like they really shined up great! You have some beautiful stones in those close ups too! Fran
