Nice! As always yourr polishes are perfection. I love bots. I have had a real hard time finding any decent cabbing material, though.

Incredible batch of Bots! That second one is amazing with that pattern and freckles.

I like the one with the center circle and the red cutting through it (8th).

Beautiful bots! I always love looking at your pictures of tumbles. The shine is perfection.

This rough was grade A but not really large enough to get any slices for cabbing. Bots are a favorite of mine for silversmithing. Something about the dark grey and banding with polished silver. Chuck

I never get tired of looking at Bots. Those look great. I know we were just talking about how you and I don't tend to see pictures in rocks, but that first one looks like a dinosaur head looking to the left. I guess I do see pictures in rocks occasionally.

I guess I do see pictures in rocks occasionally. I'm the same way! But I see the Lego dino head and now I can't unsee it.

I guess I do see pictures in rocks occasionally. Yeah that one was a bit more obvious although when I took the picture I was thinking a snake head. I like the dino head idea better now. Chuck

Third one’s got a rabbit sitting in front of a Samsung curved TV having a late-night snack.

Great job as always, love the speckled guy. We just picked up a lot of Bots and were very pleased with the quality, some larger material also. Really like the Bahia, we did a whole batch of nothing but them about a year ago- took forever, but turned out to be one of our favorites. My boy usually saves 3-4 rocks from each batch for his own collection but with the Bahias he took about a dozen.

Fantastic, especially the speckled ones. Like rockjunquie, I want to find some good Botswana cabbing material.
