I have several thousand shark teeth of every shape and size that I found 25+ years ago that are in storage. If I can ever find them, I’d like to try and embed them in resin and make some kind of desk or coffee table piece, maybe even a river style coffee table with them embedded in the clear resin. For those that have tried it or may have suggestions, what is the best method of sealing the pores in fossils and pyrite to keep them from squeezing out air bubbles during the pressurizing process? I didn’t know if there was a special sealant that folks use. Thanks

Ancient Alien Artifact or just a stick embedded in a rock?
OldMachineShop posted a topic in Fossil ID
I do not consider myself a rock or fossil enthusiast, but whenever I am out and about I will pick up interesting rocks I find. I also try and pick up a rock or stick from different places I visit. So, I was doing some landscaping a few years back, and went to the local rock yard to pick up some step stones and flowerbed rocks. I came across this interesting slab that had something embedded in it, so I took it home and made a natural bench out of it. Whenever friends come over, I joke that it's my Ancient Alien Artifact. I am just wondering if anyone can give me more information on it. Is it just a piece of petrified wood embedded in a rock? The lines are very straight and uniform, but I guess that could just be the grain of the wood. Is this something that is pretty common with petrified wood? Have just been curious about it for a few years, and just now getting around to asking a group who might know. Thanks in advance for any information.- 31 replies
