Fire and Brimstone.
Posted by Bev Darby, Rock n Spheres on 11th Oct 2016
After finishing the 3 Bumble Bee Spheres, the garage smells of sulfur. It reminds me of how the preachers in the old westerns would go on and on about hell. I had to start a major clean up under the high speed saw. Hope to finish it up today.
Alan worked all weekend on the 24 inch saw. Today will be the major test of his abilities. We put a large Plasma Agate in last night. I couldn't lift it by myself so it has to be over 75 pounds. Will be crossing my fingers on this one. The 18 inch saw that is down .......who knows when that will be back up and running.
I have 2 ready for the high speed machine, Fantasy Jasper and Fire Mountain Jasper. I am thinking I will be able to finish at least one of them before the pack up for the Whittier show this weekend.
There are 2 waiting in the wings to become round. One is not for sale, the other is a Benthlyia. Will get them going today. There is also a Tiffany Stone sphere that is almost round. This guy has given me lots of challenges because of the wide variety of hardness in the stone. I have one more flat spot to go.
Time to get moving. Thanks for reading......
