firehunter You still have to drive to the local club once in awhile to find like=minded folks to show your rocks, talk shop, and trade materials. It is a social activity, but can involve as much alone time as you want. Nice setup so enjoy it.

My family gave me a beautiful blue cabbing machine with DP wheels. I just have to make a mobile bench, cut some pvc spacers, and get plastic tubing. I am so excited to try it out. I no longer have to drive 30 min to go to the local club to cab. Beautiful! You're gonna love it! Someone was a good boy in 2020.
Thank you. I was a good girl.

I will still have to go if I need to cut slabs and to use the torches for silver smithing.

All great stuff so far. I got the Wiley Wells GPS book, a WiFi digital microscope for looking at my rocks, a little belt loop pack (not a Fanny pack!) for hunting so I can carry rocks in it, and I went and bought a 7” tile saw for trimming my pieces up for the tumbler and cutting geodes and nodules in half with a gift card I got from my boss. Now I want to get out to the Potato Patch and Hauser Beds to pick up some stuff to cut open! Santa brought me a digital microscope too, but it doesn't work on my Apple laptop. Arrr. The tile saw will be a great addition to your kit. I still use mine quite a bit.
