Well, I said Wow a lot...the turq. twins, the Tiffanys, the Serpentine, but the Wingate with the dogs head in the middle might have gotten the biggest wow, lol. Tony

Bonza cabs! Let alone you do magnificent cabs, but you also have knack for find outstanding material. The serpentine is pretty damned nice piece of rock for starters, then you cab it.

Wow! We never get enough of your work Ed. Those are fantastic. The plumes of course are always among my favorites. When you worked the Wingate, did you find the yellow portions of the plumes were soft and tended to pit or undercut? I love that material but every time I cab a piece, I always seem to run into that problem.....Mel

They are all fantastic.
Advice solicited: I bought some bumblebee when I first was getting started then learned that it can have arsenic in it so I have left it alone out of fear.
What do you do to keep safe while cabbing that and the malachite (also supposedly nasty) - I can't put a hood with a vent and all that in, so I am wondering if working wet is adequate or if I should seal this stuff in concrete and bury it.

Those are some mighty sweet stones. A few of them made me jump to your store, but they are either gone already or not listed. Very nice stuff, really tops.

Ed, Wondeful cabs from wonderful material. I wish I could start with such great rough. I have a lot of middle of the road stuff. BTW, my friend just cut a cab from some Tiffany that has the needles like yours, but more consistent. The nodule was just chalky white on the outside & it yielded just the one cab. Lynn

Enough? Are you kidding? That superb tiffany stone is the proof that you can surprize us with each post.
The turquoise pair is a very beautiful and classy set. Did you worked them glued to each other to get them equal?

Ed, those are beautiful as usual. Of course I like the serpentine, and the bumblebee. Thought not as gorgeous as the rest of the crowd, but very interesting.
