Thought some of you might enjoy seeing this crinoid calyx I prepped recently for a fellow collector:

The guy has a whole box full of these in unprepped condition.

With a name like that, I would have to look it up... ;D
And I would have to look twice before even picking it up... ;D
Awesome looking fossil,,, I think that would have to be the weirdest looking one I have ever seen...
Good luck & Happy hunting~

Wow! That's amazing! Can you describe how you do that and how much time it takes to complete?
Thanks!

I used a Chicago Pneumatic Airscribe for most of the job. It took about 3 hours. I'm going to prep several more for him in exchange for getting to keep a couple ;D
