I thought I had posted this some time ago but couldn't find any photos, just some thread references that I was going to make it. So here it is. Sorry if it is on here somewhere and I missed it. I stole this idea from Rob Jugglerguy of Michigan Rocks (you can look up the video on how to make it). Between cutting the pieces on the trim saw and tumbling in the vibratory tumbler, it is hard to get them to fit exactly as you can see in the pics. It is on my list to make some more of these for the grandnephews. The idea is that you can make many different shapes/figures from the pieces. There are examples online where you can use all the pieces or just some of them. This one was made out of unakite found in Michigan (probably Lake Huron). Thanks for taking a look, Chris

It's nice to see people making the stuff I show on my videos. I sometimes wonder how many people actually make the projects I show. I suspect it's a very small number. I think most people just watch the process to be entertained. That makes it hard to figure out who I should make the video for. Should I show lots of detail and risk boring the majority watching to be entertained or should I show more detail for the people who are actually making these things. I have usually done the latter.
