Did a trade with a lady to make a wand out of a piece of diamond willow for a groovy ring and pendant. I had the willow she had two cabs of pietersite. The one cab for the ring was a terrible cut cab for me. Straight sides with sloping ends. got the cab figured out and really think she will really be able to focus her energy with what I made, at least I am hoping. the secondary stones are a moonstone and black diamond
Here is a few more pictures.did a few repairs also and made a couple more pendants. The one repair was a pendant I put a hidden bail on and couldn't adjust it so it hung right. I took apart a mother's ring and reset the stone for the daughters. Hunting diamond willow today and earring day tomorrow.
I really like the one that is second from the bottom. Gorgeous!

Nice, Billy! I really like the pendant with the horseshoe and the Pietersite. That diamond willow is wild!

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."
