seeing how you all like pics..thought i would throw these up...while they were out...every now then at work ill stop by the grinder and shape a little...this is what i ended up with. these have to go back in polish..they were in with a bunch of bigger peices...some of the pet wood got really thin..and i was scared the bigger peices would break them. i know the pics arent very good...kind of cleared up the focus problem..only kinda..with help from members here...but i still have to work on getting the shine to show...all peices tumbled in a 3lb tumbler. savannah river agate..the 1 in the middle top row is 1 1/4 long..clickable. ![](http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c386/fittycents/th_2ndshape.jpg) left to right..1 tigers eye..1 jasper..3 amy..2 hematite..bottom row all pet wood. ![](http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c386/fittycents/th_woodandamy.jpg) some large peices of savannah river agate..finished. ![](http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c386/fittycents/th_tumbled2.jpg)

Niece pieces. I will have to be on the lookout for some of that agate. Will you fit bell caps next?

Looking good Kevin, you've got some nice shapes there. Nice tiger eye, that's a good picture.

not sure what im going to do with them deb...i think i could bell cap the agate..and a few others...but some of the pet wood is really thin.
i think im going to make a bunch...and save them...until i can afford to purchase a bunch of sterling silver bell caps..and sterling silver chains...then ill give them away.

They look like they are coming along well and they will look great polished.

Some of the thin petwood might look good with a leaf bail. I can send you a few. They are pretty cheap. DO you think silver or gold tone?
