I love your tumbler set up even with all of those barrels you will be processing that ton of rock for years.

I think that it is a Montana agate that you are referring to. By the way where in Idaho are you located?

Chadman - My husband says he'll build a multi-barrel setup, but probably not as extensive as yours!

Jason - I meant the second stone in Chadman's hand--looks opaque white behind a clear stone. We are in Idaho Falls, friends of Tony and Chris (Catmandewe and Mrs)....see the snowmobiling story under Life, Universe.... I've head Tony mention your name. Maybe will get to meet you sometime also!
