MB Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 What you can do whe you are confined at home for one or two weeks after a surgical operation? In my case.... prepping fossils I found a lot of unprepped echinoids I got from ago, and beeing alone at home, I started the work with the KOH. Also I studying... fosils of course and posting crbas photos on my web. here are some of them after the preparation.

NJ Mary Ann Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Wow, really nice work! At some point when you have time, it would be cool to see "before and after" pictures...I am very inexperienced at prep work, and it would be interesting to see some of the stages involved in getting to the finished product. And, can I say it again, nice work!! -Mary Ann ********* "There is nothing like geology; the pleasure of the first day's partridge shooting or first day's hunting cannot be compared to finding a fine group of fossil bones, which tell their story of former times with almost a living tongue."

Synechodus Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Yummie, yumie..... nice echinoids and a nice job too. Knowing how many unprepped echs are still in my garage I am almost inclined to break a leg myself ..... Best wishes for your recovery!

Roz Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Really great job, and all are in great condition, especially that one in the second pic. That one looks in mint condition. Recovering seems to agree with you... Welcome to the forum! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
