As some of you are aware I like to epoxy rocks together
Combining two rocks that compliment one another
and trying to find patterns is a quest.
There an art to it. One I’m trying to master

So what follows is probably the zenith of this quest!
I’d say it one in thousand

This the rock rough.

I’d like an I.D. or more info
I mean… I know it some sort of jasp ag/

I got it from a rock shop called Rock A Zona
and pretty sure it was hounded in Arizona

This the back of the heart.

Coloring is subtle & the banding loops
I was real happy with it -if that was all

But its the front of the heart that stuns me
I didn’t see the pattern when I cut it
but was amazed at the symmetry
I suppose its an echo stone in a way
A 50/50 chance….

sorry for the drama
but after 400 hearts
this justifies much
Ed

I call it Minos
cause the pattern reminds me
of a bull in a labyrinth…

Awww Ed. You got it mostly but there is one little bitty line down at the bottom that you need to straighten out so it matches better. Will you do that for us please? We expect nothing less than 100% from you.

rocknrob: There was a shop in Portland, don't know if it's still there called Kenny and Zukes who made the absolute best pastrami sandwiches I have ever had. The problem is every restaurant thinks their sandwich is worth $20 now and seldom makes the grade. Nov 12, 2024 9:53:31 GMT -5

rocknrob: So, to end my thread on sandwiches. If you find your sandwich worthy of that price by all means keep going to that restaurant (chewie)
