Thanks for the show. Again you collect these your self? I sure could use about 50 lbs of mix like that. Just finishing my last batch of RIO GRANDE from sabre52 . Thanks for that! Yes, all self collected. These are all much smaller than Mel's Rio's! If you are cabbing, you will have to get creative with some, but tumbling works very well! I can get about 30lbs in a MFRB. Send a PM if you want to trade some.

Darn greenhorns are destroy us older hands. Both in finding their own and quality of tumble. And suffer serious jealousy of Jacincto finds. Love the sprays. Love them all. And gets stalagmites at the same time... Thanks for that! You shouldn't sell yourself short! You and others at RTH laid the groundwork for anyone to have more fun and be more successful with the hobby! Your hard work is now paying off in the results of others. That's pretty cool! The fooling around is the fun part Jeremy. Tinkering. Tumbling is cool; you can never destroy a rock. It can always be re-tumbled and fixed. Atlanta has a lot of commercial tumbling operations for doing metal parts for some reason. I was hoping and still am hoping to make a small tumbling business as a jobber shop. If living near Rio Grande/Jacincto/Live Oak county tumbling would just plain be a perfect hobby.

Man I hope my first batch turns out half that nice. I have been lurking and reading. I have had all the rocks for my first batch for about a month now but want to learn from others mistakes
