I have no clue what it is? very hard and solid. Don't find many blues in the San Jacinto... 18. This almost looks like palm fibers, but I'm not sure...... Never seen a palm with colors like this. 19. Some sort of Jasper Braccia, or maybe Shrinkwood? 20. Not sure where I aquired this or what it is, but I really dig it! 21. Laker from Garage Rocker22. A piece of Crazy Lace from Garage Rocker.

Boy that is some beautiful material. I wish my crazy lace came out half as good as yours. Hopefully I will have some to post in a few days but after seeing yours and several of the other contributors here I might be too ashamed.

I have to give Randy Garage Rocker credit for the Crazy Lace.....high quality material!!! Please post results from your batch!!! Everyone here started where you are now, so no need to be ashamed of anything!!! BTW, I will have a little something heading your way, by the end of the week. Jeremy

My faves were 6, 11, 17, 21 and 22. That #11 is really unique. It's just a mishmash of different sized/colored chunks of stuff, very pretty, and that crazy lace is just...WOW. It looks like something that was photoshopped, it's so gorgeous. (I know it's NOT photoshopped, just a compliment on it) ;-)

Wow, another stellar batch! I dig all the variety you pull out of those San Jacinto gravels. Seems your operation is hitting full stride. 18 and 19 are wicked cool. I believe #21 is one of the Bahia's I sent, but you should have a big honking red Laker with a quartz center in there somewhere too.

The San Jacinto seems to be a tumbler's dream.....variety, sizes, hardness. The operation has hit full stride. I'll be pulling another batch out of polish tonight. Had a bunch of material set aside while I was playing with that fire agate. I am working on that Big Red Laker! I'm trying to get the quartz face smoothed out, so I can move it to the Lot-o. Boy is it beautiful!!!!! 18 & 19 are pretty cool, but I love that crazy lace!!!

The San Jacinto River gravels are filled with a bunch of different rocks, great for tumbling! Gotta agree with you on the crazy lace! It almost looks fake! Great material from Garage Rocker!!!

Nice batch. 18 looks like plume. Thanks! It does look like some sort of plume, just not sure. Here's the back of it, if it helps with ID. May have to move it over to another section for ID help.

Those are some purdy rocks! I like #2 a lot. #11 looks sort of like Michigan pudding stone, but with smaller chunks of color.

The rings run all the way through......not sure what caused it. Some day I'll get a chance to play with some pudding stone. Maybe a trade in the future? On a sour note.....there's a little football game that starts in about 71 hours and 34 minutes......

Jeremy, we demand would love to see a photo study of this one. All around to see the ones from every angle is the thought. Working on your box today and will ship tomorrow.

Believe the red and yellow is plumes cut across the trunk of the plumes. Have asked Mel about those. The yellow shrink wood ?, ask Mel. If you remember the skin you may have a better idea because shrink wood often shows detailed grain on the skin.
