All Hard Material!
Posted by Bev Darby, Rock n Spheres on 21st Apr 2017
Everything I have been cutting is extremely hard. I don't know what I have been thinking!
I have several cubes ready for corner removal. They are all hard stuff. Blood stone, Moroccan Wave Jasper, Mookaite, and I am still cutting hard stuff!
Corners coming off a Pinolith. Yea! Atlas I found something softer to work on.
I finally got the Namibian Shattuckite round. What a process. There is another just waiting for it's turn at a rough grind. The Moroccan Wave Jasper has hours to go. This material should turn out very interesting with its undulating waves and scales on the ends.
I do have a Mexican Crazy Lace Sphere on polish now. There is also another Lapis Lace sphere ready to polish.
I guess I'm not being a slacker after all. Tomorrow I clean one of the 24" saws.
Thanks for reading......
