That turned out great, even with the flaws. I love the graph. I would have thought it would have been more like an exponential decay graph, losing mass faster at first and less each week as the rock got smaller.

It is curious how linear it is, isn't it?
Tentatively thinking that it's just a function of grit type and amount of grit, and not the shape of the rock.
I haven't weighed the smalls to get an idea of total mass loss of the system, which I think could be interesting.
Put in x amount of grit and it removes y amount of rock.

That turned out awesome! The video really showcases the shine you got on it! The large section (maybe bottom) of the agate at the end of the video is the star of the show.

Great job! Also, the science behind it is cool to visualize.

This is amazing! I gotta get my small tumbles down to a science first before I can even think of doing stuff like this, but this kind of project is really cool!
