Title: 3 new cabs
Post by: bgast1 on May 29, 2016, 08:48:28 PM

I think that the first green one is Varisite. Would someone please confirm this for me?  Thanks for looking.

First one looks like variscite to me, too.  Good job on those cabs.  Very pretty!   :icon_sunny:

Yeah. Nice ones Bob. We got a parcel of the Owyhee Green from Tony (catmandewe - Idaho Rock Shop for any newer members) some time ago. It sure is fun to cut. Lots of variety.

Very nice. It seams to me that when Mtorolite is photographed that the true dose not come out, or is just me?

  Thank you everyone.  The photographs on any of these do not do the actual cab justice, but the Mtorolite is exceptionally beautiful and I sold it very quickly. I think I have some more of that Green Owyhee from Tony also somewhere but I am not sure. I like cutting it as well, there might even be a couple for cabs in the near future.
