Slow Start.
Posted by Bev Darby, Rock n Spheres on 23rd Apr 2019
I finally have been able to post some new spheres on the site. None of these are the spheres I have been searching for to complete. I do not know how long these were sitting in the reject box. I can only surmise that when I started them I had issues with them for one reason or another. An advantage to moving, you go through boxes that you had forgotten about.
The Kokoweef and the Rosetta stone spheres were particularly a very nice surprise. They were in very sorry state when I found them. I have not seen either material for sale in a very long time. Probably about the time I got my first sphere machine. I am very pleased with the results.
The strawberry onyx was in a box with others of its kind. I am guessing I got tired of making them. Every family member has one and there are several in my own collection. This area is now closed to any vehicle from leaving the power line road. It would be a hike into where the mine is and worse coming out with any boulders you dug.
The Ruby and Kyanite are cheater spheres that were not any where near round when I got them. Large flat spots that required the red finger nail polish treatment to make sure they got to where they are now.
Still haven't figured out the best spot to set up for photos. It will be a work in progress.
Thanks for reading.......
