Another lovely lot of ammonites, Bobby. 

That's quite some collection you're building there. :)

@Bobby Rico, lovely collection. I am looking at a trip to the UK for my wife's 60th birthday. So I scouted on Google Earth the Isle of Skye that you mentioned. My question for you is what are they raising in the large containers in the sea to the NE side of the island? The aquafarming is very obvious when I look around.

Turned out very nicely, Bobby.:)

Must try and get mine cleaned up a bit more.

Glad you like it. :)

You should definitely prep yours. My Friend said the matrix was not very easy to work and had to be cleaned with an  abrasive  .
