Bart,

Looks like you hit paydirt....looking forward seeing the pictures. Just a heads up if you use your cell phone to take the pictures make sure the gps tracking feature is turned off.

We wouldn't want claim jumpers to find your honey hole by figuring out the coordinates.

 

[Blak bart]

Yup....I turn it off when I'm in the Bush!! Have to switch islands tomorrow so I'm gonna hit the trail early for pics.

RC,

I checked my collection yesterday and there are some good examples to show you in Breccia and Granite.

Will ty to make later some good photos! Especially on one old kingdom bowl it is still good to see under the rim how flat and shiny they was able to polish. Hope I can make some good fotos.

There is one middle kingdom cosmetic vessel with very curious carving lines under the rim and where you can see they pushed the drill forward 1mm each rotation. But still not the quality as 1000 or more years before!
