Newbie from California!
« on: February 21, 2020, 03:18:01 PM »
Howdy!
My name is Mindy, and I'm excited to be here!
My grandparents were rockhounds & lapidary enthusiasts. Ssdly they are both gone now...
But my aunt recently gave me a lot of slabs that belonged to them. So I decided to buy a cab machine & go for it... I'm lovin it!
I am really hoping to get some advice, as well as some identification for some stones that I am having trouble ID-ing...
I'm new but learning fast!
Glad to be here, thanks for accepting me in!
Mindy  :WEEEE:
