This is really interesting. fossilman, I've seen you mention reusing slurry before, can I ask for one of those great videos that you do to see how? Guessing you don't dump your barrels over a window screen like I do and just let the slurry run into the grass. lol

Garage Rocker Just reread what you said about a top load box. Sad to say that went right over my head the first time I read it LOL

From a personal standpoint, and I'll state it here, you've been a stand up guy who has communicated without issue with our trade, and I'll support you if there are any perceived hiccups. I don't have that with you, and you've been a great guy to deal with. Hope this helps to some degree. Dave That's high praise, I'm honored. Thank you! And thanks for the Lavic, it's gorgeous and now I'm thinking another tumbler is REQUIRED!

captbob that's good info, wonder why they didn't mention that option to me... Truth be told, the look on their faces when I told them it was boxes of rocks... Priceless ROFL! Guess they were trying to discourage me from making them lug around more rocks xD

Garage Rocker I don't even know what that is lol! aDave Good to know, I only split it with buyers and it's mostly a courtesy here as I'm new and people might see it as taking a risk with an unknown seller. I don't mind, I'm just happy to get this stuff distributed and seeing what wonders you all come up with it.

Yes, the post worker asked about them to, but they didn't have any of the top loading boxes, only the side loading which are a bit annoying to pack. I'd have to drive to another town to pick some up.

Here's what I have left that's about fist size and up and the largest remaining piece. The largest piece is 9 pounds, 12 ounces. Blue is less than 1 pound. Green is just shy of 1 pound. Red is 1 pound or greater, but none of 2 pounds.

?? Did I miss a post saying you were selling? If so, my bad. I thought I had posted (way back on another thread) that I would take a couple medium FR boxes. Keep me in mind when you make another trip please! What were you selling for per pound? (just curious) I posted just 3 or 4 post above. I traded with 4/5 of those I mentioned. I'm asking $5/pound and splitting shipping. I still have a fair amount, but it's smaller, fist size or so with much that's smaller.

Thanks! fossilman, ubermenehune and aDave should be receiving theirs today. meviva might have hers show up too and toiv0 should have his tomorrow. I'm maybe more excited for their reactions than I was looking at the cleaned material lol!

I used the boxes that my tumblers came in to muffle them somewhat. The small Nat Geo doesn't get hot, and the Lortone doesn't seem affected one way or the other. Helps that I keep them in a cool basement though I think.

Large slabbing material is going quick, I only have a little over a dozen pieces left that are bigger than a fist. Plenty of smaller material, though most will need broken up to tumble. First come first serve, plenty left! I'm mostly looking to trade, but if you'd rather I'll sell it for $5/pound and split the shipping (using flat rate boxes).
Message me, even if you're not sure, it never hurts to ask!
