Yes, it is and I'm having a hard time choosing my fav. Thanks to all the participants for putting on a beautiful show. Makes me wish I had time to participate.

Weird. I see them at the very top of the page. With where it’s at. No one is going to catch up with the lead at this point.

Congratulations roQhound on winning the contest with an incredibly beautiful cabochon creation! My jaw dropped when I first saw it posted and in a crowded field of very beautiful stones apparently my jaw wasn't the only one ![(thumbs-up)](//storage.proboards.com/1258779/images/poyofurZTHYIzGrfVSom.gif) ![](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53687658660_0131393d00_b.jpg) ![](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53687423273_3e6a0e0065_b.jpg) Please send me a PM with your choice of theme for our June contest and I'll pass you your $30 gift certificate, kindly supplied by Chad from Suva Lapidary. ![Suva Lapidary](https://suvalapidary.com/cdn/shop/files/suva-lapidary-jewelry-supply_rth_300.png) Thank you everyone who participated!

Congratulations to the winner and all the participants! This is an excellent round. Hope to see that many entries for every cab contest. I will shamelessly suggest some cab contest ideas (after checking forum.rocktumblinghobby.com/thread/96043/contest-winner-board-data-updated to try to not come up with existing themes): 1. Gradients (or even a more narrowed-down theme: Sunset or sunrise) 2. Cabs with natural hole(s) - not just druzy. You shall be able to see through the natural holes. 3. Marine (whatever related, ocean/beach/lake/seaweed/marine life/...) 4. Concentric circles (a subset of orbs) 5. Healed fractures 6. Two cabs that pair with each other perfectly

Congrats. Thought I had a decent chance being an area of agate I don’t focus on much. Then you busted that out.

Thanks, everyone! That was a fun contest and there were some really cool ones in there! I'm looking forward to the next ones and I hope you guys will like what I picked for a theme. pebblesky - those are some good ideas, but I have something else that I've been interested in seeing lately.

I sincerely love that hornet cab I honestly love that cab. One of my favorites I’ve cut. It’s not something I’ve seen in that material before. And if you know me, I like to cut uncommon material.
