That would make one heck of a stained glass window. Shiny as glass.

Take a break from the rocks now,during this time. snuffy

Sawing and tumbling will work your butt off and burn electricity. That is a lot of equipment. I spend time selling plants for money and rocks are for play. Gotta work
hard to make money w/rocks. So they are for fun only. I have been thinking about selling purdy glass jars full of coral chips. As accessory decoration. No sawing or tumbling. just hammering
chips.
Have been cooking a bit. But now i cook 150 pounds at a time in big chunks. That's a lot of rock. The pro cooker fellow told me that chunks get way hotter than slabs. Especially in the center. So that is a new thing i learned. I notice the inside of rocks got hotter colors that outside colors. Go figure.
You have been dabbling w/rocks for a long time.Coarse, you have about seen every rock there is.
I am happy just seeing variations in my coral. So it is cheap hobby.
