4 outta 5 ain't bad!
« on: September 27, 2018, 03:13:21 PM »

Spent a few hours yesterday on thee ol tile saw making preforms.. today I picked out a few that were screaming to get cut! From left to right- unknown agate(found it in the bottom of my 18" slab saw when I bought and cleaned it out), nephrite jade(most likely BC jade) I picked up at an estate sale a couple years ago, Olympic poppy jasper, and adventurine(also from cleaning out my slab saw). Also had a sweet variscite piece but me and my fat ol butterfingers dropped it on the concrete in my shop.. will most likely 're-cut the bigger of the two pieces after I quite crying about it LOL
