Another Snyders
« on: October 18, 2017, 12:34:27 pm »

I have a bucket of Texas amoeba's, so all kinds of odd shaped stuff. Thinned this one out to almost 7 to 1, has a interesting crystal on the tip that let sunlight shine right thru. Nice and wide 2-5/16, Thanks for lookin. :KN Bob

Looks sweet Bob.  I can't even imagine trying something that wide.  Nice work.

Nice work Bob. I agree with Zuma that one looks a bit fishy. Lol the crystal does look like a eye. Usually those crystals are nothing but trouble for me. I usually end up with a clunky spot by them. Any advice?

Good looking point, Bob. I haven't had much luck with that amoeba.

Why is it called amoeba?  Looks real nice.

jeffp51, Amoeba is a type of Texas rock that has weird shapes like amoeba's have, It can be challenging because of odd shapes and I believe most it is raw so can be anything from tuff to candy as far as workability, usually a little cheaper than primo Texas materials. Everybody likes a Texas tab just skin it and notch it, Most amoeba need lots of reduction.  Bob
