The wife took over my rockhounding hobby - her first batch of tumbles for “fun” just to see how would turn out… this is the third tumble before polish…. I will attempt to make some wire wrapped jewelry out of some of these…trim with Dremel tool and polish again… iphone isn’t the best camera

Some interesting rocks. Where did they come from? I might be wrong...but I'm just going to throw out a guess...I'm thinkin' they came from the ground.

“The wife took over”…. 👍. It’s a good hobby to enjoy together. Give it a few decades and you’ll be the cute old timer couple down at the local rock club.🤓

Congrats on your first batch!
Do you already wire wrap or do you plan to learn?

I’ve just begun the wire wrapping … only did one so far, was waiting for some of these rocks to come out to see if any can be wrapped and or how.

Have you seen the wire wrapping section? Go to HOME, scroll down. It’s called WIRE WRAPPING! Enjoy!
