I hit a sale here in Houston on Saturday at Moore's Lapidary. I did not get a chance to really look over Moore's stuff, but I did get to see the 4-foot saw in person (not in action, however). I picked up some slabs and a $10 bucket that included a large faced Brazilian and a sweet looking carnelian, as well as some ammy sage and other agates. But my deal of the day involved picking up these two. The seller said he had bought them at the San Antonio show last month from a guy who said they came from Mexico, in the same area where they pull out a lot of crazy lace. It may be several weeks before I can start cutting on them, but I am really looking forward to it. Check 'em out. Each one weighs a shade over 3 lbs. matt
