;D I got this from Astro Gallery today, I've always had good luck with them. 11 pounds for $24 with shipping. Yeah, I know. "It's just black" lol. This stuff will shine like a mirror! .....

That looks like obsidian to me...but I could be wrong. I have a piece of obsidian I found about 20 years ago that weighs about a pound and it looks alot like it.

OOops, forgot to mention what it is. Mel's got my back as usual. ;D It is in fact black agate. A very nice on at that. The last one that I cut up and polished turned out sweet, and this one is so much prettier with the white veins running through it. I think I'm going to at least cut the heel off tonight and see what's in it. I'll post pics.

I'd love to, but I promised my dad a visit on Sunday. He lives in Farmville. I definately want to come over though. I gotta try out this cabbing thing and see if it's for me. If so, I can see a machine in my near future.
