I think that the next time I go get Lavic, I should smash up a few buckets full so I have some and don't change my mind when I get home.

I think you did very well with all of the material. Glad you like the Lavic. Yeah, it can pit, but I really like the variety you can end up with. It tends to shape fairly easily and results in a nice shine. I've found that the stuff that tends to look layered (like the one at the bottom of photo 7) often results in few pits, and brecciated material will show more flaws. IMHO, I think it's great stuff to roll, despite a few flaws.

Beautiful material! The colors and the polish you got with this batch are top-notch. I would say these rocks got a royal tumble based on the work you put into them.

Good looking batch, Duke. Super shine! That Lavic can be tricky, looks like you handled it well. Thanks for sharing.
