Those Dino ones have amazing patterns...and so do these!!
3 more Coprolite ones that also turned out very well. Think it was a meat eater?

Nice picks, I like the rutilated quartz the best. I bet the dino bone ones would be the best overall though, I play guitar and something durable is always good.

Thanks Dude, those ones did turn out good.
 Here is another picture of the dinosaur bone pick shown from the last page (bottom left). This pic shows Dan holding it, so you can see how its translucent is several spots.

There have been alot of people suggesting we drill holes in some of the
guitar picks for using as necklaces.  This is something we would really rather not do to them, because it may weaken the pick and makes it not as easily accessable for use when playing. Guess what Dan just made today.........  He's sooooo smart and creative! Now the guitar pick can be easily removed, and placed back in the wire wrap when not in use. Makes an amazing looking necklace, and the pick doesnt have to be drilled. Won't loose it this way either! Thanks Dan, great idea!

Here is a recent guitar pick that Carlos Santana inspired me to make.
 Triangle guitar picks seem to work for him! Its made from a Del Norte Colorado Agate, and is only 1.3 mm thin. That Del Norte agate sure is some classy looking stuff!

Thanks Faaus!
That wood sure is pretty stuff. You like that last piece of wood from Eden Valley, you are really going to like these! Hard to see the great shine I got from them, but the color sure shows in the pic. Cut from the same piece as you can see, I made a guitar pick from one and the cabochon from the other. The part thats cloudy white is translucent when you hold it up to the light. Fantastic piece of petrified wood! Dan did a great job as always slabbing these for me. Im not sure what Im going to do with these...... Maybe save for a contest.
