I just joined the Beenleigh lapidary club and attended my first workshop today, I cabachoned a piece of petrifird wood and it is now ready to set into a necklace.
Feeling very proud of myself

I am only at the cabachoning stage so far, that is rounding and shaping stones and then polishing them.
When I get good enough the mates rate is called postage.

You and me both Beth. In excess of 40 degrees and I might put a big toe in but that's about it.
