Re: Another iceberg
Man, you have a seriously unusual collection. Unusual in a good way.
How are you at wood work? I have researched creating cheap daiza's, and have a fairly good knowledge of building them if your interested.
Looks great as is though, most of my Suiseki are not mounted so I should take some of my own advice.

Re: Another iceberg
I like your iceberg this way and I would call it the phantom of the opera

Mitchell, None of my stones have daiza's and I would love to pick your brains on how to make them. I got a small router for my birthday and have been practising cutting out but have not finished one yet. Any advice you could give would be most welcome.
Regards Greg

Re: Another iceberg
It might be my weird thinking but it it looks like a face with a p#%n*s attached. The name for it is glaringly obvious

I have always thought the same myself but iceberg stone just sounded better than P#%N'S stone
