OK, this first one is the most interesting stone I've tried to cab. The brown parts will NOT polish - the green parts go away in an instant, and the shiny parts look for all the world like silver. Can't see any crystal-type formation in it. If anybody has a clue what it is, I'd sure like to know. Front: Back: The second one is a little piece of "white turquoise". I got an FRB from Nancyid and it had this slab in it, and it was the only one that broke. I did NOT throw the pieces away - I'm going to use all 3 pieces like this. Front: Back: Thanks for looking. Tom

Keep at the wrapping you are doing great. That first wrap is fun to look at. It's playful. Maybe it's the stone or the wire frame or both but it makes me smile.

Hey Tom, they're looking great. I don't have a clue what that 1st one is, but it's an eye-popper. The shiny parts may be hematite. That polishes with a real silvery sheen. Did you notice that your wrap on that stone looks like a little fat man? Makes me smile. Jo

I had not "seen" the Mr. Potatohead in the first one - but now I do, and for me, it changes it from a serious wrap attempt to slapstick comedy! LOL! ;D ;D ;D

Great job Tom! I think the first looks like some kind of cartoon character and it made me laugh because it is so neat! Keep up the great work! Fran
