Spent the last 3 days cranking out this piece.  Fire agate center stone, black obsidian, malachite corners, agatized dinosaur bone, "Arizona malachite" Rick, I haven't sold any pieces yet, but I haven't tried either. This is one that I personally like. Mickey |

Wow, almost expect some mystical flames to come shooting out of that while a bunch of robed figures stand around it in a circle chanting.....hahahaha...... sure is gorgeous.

Man, that IS awesome, Mickey!
Awesome combination of materials. I haven't cut much/any fire agate,
but I'm trying to figure out how you did that!
Great job there.
Joe

Mickey, what are you using as a bonding agent? Looks very clean.

Arappaho and Rick,
I spent a half a day going through my fire agate grinding and looking for a piece that I could use as a center stone. It's hard to find ones that can be ground flat and not lose it's fire.
Chromenut,
I use epoxy to hold it together. This piece will be backed with dino bone for added strength.
