Client in Temecula California had me weld handles to hold pit in stone surround. WOW they keep getting cooler and cooler! We are leaving for William Holland again this Friday. Want to get to the sluice mine when it opens Saturday morning π was thinking about hitting Summerville Sunday! If you are up for a meet and greet over some rocks we could meet there. If that's not possible we could stop by and say howdy on our way back home the following weekend. Reply here or PM me to discuss hon

Finally after a week of relearning my CAD program, I finished tweaking my new Custom Lap template. I made this stencil with Make The Cut software, KNK Zing Air, help from pics captured from the Internet and some especially made by manofglass (Walt) for me. I finally finished it Walt! I was actually inspired to do this by rockjunquie. She has a few twirly cabs I fell in love with and wanted to make my own. Thanks Tela for the inspiration! Thanks for looking.

Whoo Hooo did I just since your Rockhounding spidey sensors go off??? You guys burn up all your frequent flier miles or you have enough left to be thinking about Texas Ranch Rock Hunting? Sorry to hear about your tumbler sis. Going to be a while before you get it running again? Mean while all you partly, pretty pebble are sitting intheir little water swimming pool waiting for you.. grin
Don't you worry your pretty little think tank over our free travel miles. They are linked to 2 business accounts and 2 personal accounts. We Have Lots π I have a rather large order in to Shawn at The Rock Shed. New Parts and new Lot-O (just for polishing) on their way!! Should be up and running again in no time. An ALL should know by now I AM ALWAYS DOWN FOR A ROCKHOUNDING TRIP!!

Hey Dale if it's powdery it could be a form of sulfur as well.

Is anything happening? I have not received a box yet. Sorry Hun, We arrived home around midnight Tuesday night from vacation. Since I've been home my Cold I've had for more than 2 weeks has gotten worse on top of having to unpack and play catch up. I have a couple cabs I'm trying to finish up before sending out. I will do my best to get it sent out before the 4th!! No more excuses!!

Hey Melissa, thanks for actually taking pictures of the rocks. Like to see the shore rocks. Me and wife stopped at a pebble beach in Jamaica many years ago(interested in playing and not collecting so much). Darn if we did not find red and green jasper, some banded agate. Great agates. I wished we had spent more time collecting. well worn pebbles 1-3 inches. North shore about 20 miles east of Ocho Rios. Not much beach access except by walking. Not sure how many pebbley beaches they have there. I also hate that the few times we've been to Jamaica I wasn't a rock lover. I have a few PDF studies that say it's quite the Rockhounding place! Maybe our next trip will be to there an I can pick us up a few.
