I have a bunch of Delaware river rock around the house. Its landscaping rock not natural to my area but I would have a never ending supply if this is a good tumbling stone.

I am not familiar with Delaware River Rock but 90% of the stuff I tumble comes from waterways. It depends on how many pits and fractures are present in the rough rock. I'd run it through the course stage and then look at your results. If it is filled with pits and fractures, then I'd say it isn't worth the hassle. If it looks like it's workable, move it to the next stage or redo the rough grit stage to make sure the pits are gone. Good luck, Scott
