Here is some pictures of my rock shop in progress.....these pics are the before
 am still decideing if i want to set it all back up because everything in the boxes in that cornor use to be on those shelfs on the wall....as u can see dad has his lil chopper still in there and that is a hazard  hopefully we will get that out this weekend so i will have more room to play with....the last pic is a pic of my lapidary or (PDQ as it says on the front....not sure yet what that stands for but it is a lil table top lapidary) right now it is setup for faceting (without the disk in the platform) and drilling right below that on the left side and a lil polishing wheel on the left and then the trim saw on the right on the motor. This is just the begining........there will be more

Scott,
I hate to say this but I am still confused, mybe it is the way the photos came out, the pop-rock looks translucent. The ones I have are definently pyrite, I did not think it could be clear, but I wouldn't be suprised if I was wrong about that. Nice thread by the way, very helpful and you do great work. Thank you for the links as well, the boji stone stuff cracks me up! ...Dude -------------------- Dude, Duder, or El Dudearino if you're not into the whole brevity thing.
