Been Awhile!

I have been a slacker!
I can't believe it's been this long since I have blagged. So much has been going on!
July we had our show in Culver City that was an amazing success. Enjoyed our stay with friends for the short while we were there.
August was the Prescott show. Another successful show. It is nice to be close to home. In between we made a run to New Mexico to learn hands on about the big Highland Park core drill.
Now the core drill is here and tarped. We are waiting for the cargo container to be ready. It now is being disguised as a shed. We are hoping it passes mustard and the county doesn't call us on it. There are a couple in the neighborhood but are mostly hidden from street view. Friday we will go to see the drill get uncrated and secured in the container.
In the mean time I have been cutting thick slabs of hard material for when the drill is finally set up. Everything is 2.5" to 4.5" thick. I guess I have prepped enough material for 100 spheres. I am really excited about some of the material I haven't cut in a long time because of the long grind times. Super excited to get started.
I have also been finishing up some material that was preformed the old way.
Denver's Hardrock Summit is around the corner. I have all my inventory sorted for what will make the trip. We are looking forward to a great show.
Thanks for reading.......
