    About a million years ago there was a cartoon of a toothpick factory that made one toothpick out of an entire tree. I think you did a lot better with that excellent cab out of that one rock.

    Just an FYI if before you dopp the stone you grind just the smallest amount on the very edge on the side that you dopp it will keep it from cracking and chipping while you cab it. and on another note to get an even height of bevel on the edge lye it flat side down then lye a marker on its side while turning the cab while touching the point of the marker it will leave a prefect line around your stone so you will know where to grind the stone down to.

    Great Job on cutting out those pieces and getting that cabochon made. They don't all have to be big. It is nice to see different techniques that help me to become better at this craft. Keep up the good work!

    Very nice, too bad you lost so much of the rock! I can't wait to see it in the bezel! Thanks for sharing! Happy Father's day!

    It turned out fabulous Jason! Wow! That beautiful plumy agate turned out to be an awesome cab! The plume is gorgeous! And you're right, and open back setting would look fabulous! Thanks for sharing Jason!

    Could you make a matching set of earrings with some of the smaller pieces? Maybe even a ring.

    As you were cutting it, it reminded me of a petrified fatty piece of beef. But on the same note, it was so cool looking I think you should do something with all the cut off pieces too.

    Very informative video showing how to examine a rock with fractures to see if a cabochon is possible
    Thanks! I'm going to give more time to some rocks in my discard pile!

    I have always wondered and this would be an awesome example to do this with... Is to shape both sides and simply frame it in silver/gold/brass or copper. Like a lens or monocle you could hold to the light if you understand what I mean ;-) That would do its true beauty justice. Like your stuff ... Keep it coming 👍👍 😎

    Have you thought about cutting and polishing Opals? They have much more fire and play of color.

    I am a Rockhound and gold prospector, and have a few really nice pieces you would like. I think you could really make some great pendants with them.
    I live in Michigan and have found some really nice jasper as well.
    Great video my friend! I will send them to you for free. All i ask is, if you like them - please do a video on them and let me know what you think of them, and if possible make a small pendant for my granddaughter.
    I also just subscribed to your channel my friend. 👍

    That pink mottled stuff, after you did that one cut, would make pretty cabochons, not sure how stable it is though.

    Nice shine on that finished piece Jason. As for fracturing, I don't think that's unique to or just the BoF pieces. I'm always amazed at how "damaged" raw pieces are; which unfortunately severely limits what a person can get out of them!
