Yep-gotta throw my hat into the ring here.  Stunning and gorgeous at the same time; I am very impressed. Motivates me to try my hand. Polishing both sides takes a bit more planning and commitment.  Thanks for sharing.

What type/diameter of cord do you use? I like the simple presentation in your photos but my bolo cord just doesn't swing it.

Thanks, David.

Very nice. A vender at Quartzsite had some of that last week but I just couldn't justify $50.00 a lb
