Thanks everyone. The background is the bottom of a frosted glass candy, or nut dish, upside down. It works great on clear agates and shows the colors on all the cabs as true. Jeff, with jade, I try to get the surface as best I can coming off the 280 wheel, then use light pressure on 600 and up. It helps to not pull the fibers out, which causes the orange peel. Some people swear by old 600 SiC belts, but I'll stick to diamond. I use 14k, 50k, and 100k paste for the polish and make sure you build up some heat, it helps the shine.

Every single one of them are fantastic. This is my all time favorite plume. I like the old bed material better.

That is a really nice piece of Rhodonite. All nice but the rhodonite really pops.

Great looking cabs, I bet the obsidian is killer in person.
