How's this one for a road find? I'm thinking quartz with jasper? I'm still working on my identification skills.

Wow! That's a great job on a first attempt or any attempt. Nice shine and a nice looking bunch of rocks.

You studied the art, made the right decisions and now have an incredible first tumble. Fine job. The gravel road provides!

Thanks for the encouraging responses. The hours of watching videos and reading really helped get me pointed in the right direction. I have already tweaked some things on my second batch so I am hoping for some better results.

Rad! I wanna walk around on your roads too! Yeah I am lucky to live by miles and miles of dirt roads to walk in the evenings. Definitely an easy way to get rocks to practice with. Problem now is all the leaves covering up the rocks!

I can be to the southern lake Michigan or lake Huron beaches in a little over 2 hours. I was just at lake Michigan a few days ago and lake Huron a couple weeks ago. I have some lake Huron rocks in my current batch.
