Well, I finally did it. I bought a Lot-O 4.5 lb. vibe. Plus a lot of grit, plus some rocks ;D, from the Rockshed. I was going to get a 2-barrel Thumler, too, but they were out of stock.

I should get it Monday. Good thing I'm going to be out of town this weekend, because if I had to stay home waiting over the weekend, I would not be pleasant, LOL.
I'm not sure how the 'star' thing works (altho I think it revolves around # of posts), but I think I should move up from 'considering spending too much' to actually 'have [glow=red,2,300]definately[/glow] spent too much' on rocks!!!

Surprise: to cause to feel wonder or astonishment by being unexpected. Happens every time I crack (now cut!) a rock.

I need to get a job a get money so I can buy a tumbler and start tumbling. Maybe if I be really really nice to my parents they might consider buying me.
My dad's mum collects some great rocks and gave me some. I have tryed taking some photos of my rocks but the images suck.

Does the cammera make a big difference in how the image will come out?

LOL Good for you Karen, won't be long now and we'll be seeing totally awesome rocks in the photo forum. I'm not 100% sure but I think you have to get your post count to 500 before you change to something else. .... Get blabber posting girl!!

Nathaniel, the camera does make a huge difference in how they turn out, you really need to have a camera with a macro setting on it. If you don't then try using a magnifying glass held in front of the lens. Get as close as you can with it still in focus, the put the magnifying glass up, you should see a big difference though you might need to refocus some.
