These are from my second batch. Some shine and some matte finish as well. The shine could be better and I believe I know how i messed up. I'm not sure the ones with the matte finish will take a shine as I have run a few of them twice with the same results. The semi-shiny The best ones The matte The problem These are some kind of fossils from lake Huron. The bottom few rocks are what they look like before being tumbled and the top is the result. They turned out OK but I am pretty sure they were the reason I didn't get the shine I could have. I will run the fossils on their own next time as I am happy with the way they turned out. Live and learn.

The shiny rocks look excellent and the matte finish also very pleasant. The tumbled fossils are so interesting to look at!

Those all look awesome! From the shiny, to the matte, to the fossils! I love Great Lake finds! I really like the quartz with the red/purplish streaks.

Yeah the quartz with the purple lines is my favorite as well. I can't say that I have seen many rocks with purple in them and this batch had two. The bigger purple one didn't turn out that great but it's different so that makes it good LOL.

The matte rocks might not be shiny but you sure did get a nice shape on them! Very nice!
