OK, maybe not first batch but it is my first batch of 2024. The demands of my job have completely sidelined my hobby but I managed to get some tumblers back rolling. These finished up in the lot-o vibe tumbler this week. Just a couple nice stones and a bunch of Apache tears. The very cool looking jasper is one I do not know the origin of. The other one is a piece of Arizona rainbow petrified wood. The last photo is for the folks that like to see how reflective the shine is. I try hard to not show reflections in my photos and try to place the light reflections in areas that do not hide the patterns in my stones.      Thanks for looking, Chuck |

Nice to see you! No matter how many of your tumbles I see, I am impressed every time! I am not fully up and running by any means but I am at least dipping my feet back in the pool. Certain tumbled rocks are works of art in my eyes. Much like your wire wrapping. Your wraps are not cookie cutter ordinary stuff (like mine). The level of detail, design and care shows in your end product. I would like to think that shows in my tumbles. Chuck |

Thank you. That first one earned a spot in my personal collection of tumbles. Not many make that cut. Chuck |

The print on the light bulb(?) is clear as can be in the last photo. Superb polish and flawless stones. The Apache tears are perfect! Thanks so much for sharing.

Yes that was my attempt at showing the reflection onto the rock from label on the inside of the lamp. That is a really hard picture to pull off. The text is much crisper in person. Chuck |
