Ello everyone! Names Deb. Been hounding for over a year now. I am fascinated with rocks! It began as a way to pass time while my other half fished, but grew into a sort of obsession. I find my rocks anywhere, but mainly the beaches. I have come across dentures, many fish hooks and gear, fossilized shells (my fave has what appears to be teeth in it), and a coin from early 1800s (Napoleon Emperor). I have been trying to learn all the beach rocks since I began hounding them. It isn’t easy! And now, I am going to attempt my homemade rock tumbler but not without researching first. Without sounding lame, my fave rocks are milky soft white. Second would be the fire orange that if you put up to the sun you can see through (but all of them you can see through I keep), and the clear crystal (like?) rocks that I also can see through. I have purchased a Dremel, and recently learned how to use t. Works great on some rocks! With all that, nice to be here!

Welcome from Nebraska! You've definitely come to the right place for information and assistance- the people here on RTH are the best! Not sure how much help I can be, but be sure to ask any question that you may have and if I don't know the answer, someone else will. 😀
