Title: Brand new set of yummy cabs
Post by: irockhound on June 03, 2020, 09:31:52 AM

Here is another set of cabs. from this last week.  I will only introduce the first couple.  First was a slab preform for a large oval (probably 52 38 or larger and it had broken.  I looked at the pattern and found the best angle to capture the most from the stone and it turned out wonderfully.  2nd was some of my original Victoria stone from the 60's not the new lower grade stuff.  3rd was some Coyamito rough I bought hoping it would go solid but the vug ran thru 90 percent of it.  Make the best out of it.

The cabs are labeled.
