Stone Butterflies—Maker's Challenge 2023

Each year Theo Kellison challenges a group of rockhounds to make something out of their rocks. This year, I decided to make butterflies out of rocks that I found. Be sure to check out the projects other people made. This is a fun bunch of videos:

– KINGSLEY NORTH –
Kingsley North is a lapidary store in Michigan's U.P. They make a great cab machine and sell many other brands too. They have a huge selection rough rock, tumblers, grit, jewelry supplies etc. at good prices. I buy most of my coarse grit from here in 45 lb. bags. It's the best price I have found. If you buy using the following link, I make a small commission.

– THE ROCK SHED –
I buy a lot of lapidary supplies from The Rock Shed. I don't make money from your purchases there, but they have good prices and good service. This is where I buy my finer grits and polish.
