Hi Gents,

As a new honer, the jnat world is about the same complexity as alchemy. I've been to dozens of web sites trying to sort out the relevant from the chaff. Perhaps this work has already been done and I've not looked in the correct places?

Who knew that sedimentary rocks impregnated with silica was so nuanced and complex?

Anyway, I've had success with synthetics and want to begin my jnat journey in a reasonable way. Any advice, resources, tutorials, or hard won (and I'm certain there is a great deal) knowledge is much appreciated.

Gabe
