From the last batch, now I gotta wait awhile for more to get ground down. 90% of these are local ones I've picked up: you can't really see in this pic but this one has all these cool little druzy bits in clear pockets: this is a chunk of pet wood I put in with the batch it shined up nice except for the fracture right along the growth ring: here's the chunk I sawed the pet wood off of: jasper - sometimes it doesn't shine up, difference in material I guess the first bits of the red jasper/agate I've recently noticed: some agate: This is my favorite from the batch, a chunk of quartz I tossed in as a lark not really expecting it to do anything: A fist size chunk of epidosite:

Very nice self-collected tumbles, timloco! Really like the moss agate and pet wood, especially seeing your pic of your pet wood rough that it came from. That's a pretty and large tumble of epidosite!

local is always the most interesting to me. I love seeing what everybody picks up in his or her own neck of the woods. Love the color and varity here. That last epidosite is like ice... all good!
