WoW BOB! Not only can you build anything...it looks like you have this tumbling stuff down! I like those arrowheads and the hearts turned out great as well. Nice stuff. I guess I'm going to have to visit Magna one of these days.

Mike, that wood came from Topaz Mt in Utah. My mom & dad collected it over 60 years ago.

Thanks again...Bob

I love the various shapes, you tumbled them beautifully, really crisp yet smooth, super job all round and a fascinating range of materials. I particularly enjoyed the arrow heads too, they really work well!

You got some super piccys there Bob, not bored in the slightest! ;D It's always nice to see what folks are tumbling and these shapes are really great, that's one heck of a batch! Well Done!

Cheers,

Sparkles.
