Here's a photo of my first attempt at tumbling with the UV10 or any other tumbler for that matter.

Very nice Timd! It turned out way better than my first UV-10 load... or second... or third... Oh well...
How did you get the stones so well rounded?
What are your thoughts after finishing your first vibe? (feels good I bet)

Thanks! The tumbler are certainly puts a nice shine on them but also shows cracks and crevices a bit more once polished. I'm ok with that for now but would like to improve.

Way to go, dude, that's a great first go. Very encouraging going forward. You're going to do well at this!

Thanks! These are all hand picked over the years. I used to spray them with a fine coat of lacquer to give the "wet" look but wanted to try something new and different. I will certainly be having fun with this new hobby!
Many of the rocks that I pick are somewhat shaped and polished from years of being tumbled in Lake superior
