Howdy, Just got my first batch out of polish since I moved to Texas. Was out of Rockshed AO so I used tin oxide. Like three times the cost and about the same results as the AO. This is just some left over mix I had still in my tubs after the move. Bots, Cady's jasper, Bubblegums, Indian Fancy Jasper. Shoot, a little of everything. Thanks for lookin....Mel  |

Oz:No Brazilians in this batch. There are Lakers because I like to use them for filler. Most the other banded types are out of Mexico or Botswanas. I moved two big 50# tubs of my most varied tumble mix from California, so my batches for the next few years will really be a mad mix of worldwide stuff. Hopefully, I'll find time to sort the mix some as I really prefer to do single type loads...Mel

Wow! Those bots are really great! There are so many different types of stones there it keeps me looking! That green one in the center top looks really nice also...They all do!

Lakers as filler....sheesh! :-)
I'll have to post some of my Lakers in my current batch and see if you change your opinion...
Great looking batch, though!
