Dang Jamie, i don't know how you guys make anything out of that stuff! Looks great and considering what you made it out of that's quite an achievement! I have some busted up concrete out there if your interested :D.

And I thought rhyolite was tough stuff!!! You did a great job! I would have left that rock right where I found it.

We have dolomite here in the hill country, except ours is pink. That is some of the hardest rock here can't belive someone can knap it. My hats off to you my friend. Well done!  Tower
