It has been a busy week.  I have completed all of the Hematite spheres but 1.  Such a mess this material makes.  This is the last of the material so I can clean everything up.  I am still surprised at how well it turned out.  Thanks Ryan for talking me into purchasing it.  

The Petrified Palm from Indonesia also looks great.  This stuff had a lot of back and forth activity.  I finally got it right.  I hope this boulder is the only one out of them all that is so fussy.  I have one more of this pattern and 2 cubes cut of white with black eyes.  I won't be able to take the corners off of those with the chop saw, the material is too hard.

Ready for the high speed machine are 2 chrysocolla in quartz spheres, 2 spinel in matrix spheres and 3 small bumble bee spheres and a larger Ruby in Ziosite sphere that I chopped on monday.  all that besides the problem child ones that I have been going back and forth on.  That includes material from the Pearsons (Mystery Mountain Moss and Pearsonite ) another Dead Camel, a large Blood Stone and a Mookaite I started months ago.  

As it has already started getting too hot in the afternoons to work in the garage, getting them all finished will be a slower process.  Work out there stops at noon.  :-(

Thanks for reading......
