Okay ..... I decided to stop pouting and get back to working with the vibe.
I finished one batch (Lortone) of 60/90 that I have had going since April 11th of Mexican Lace and a few Carnelian thrown. They look pretty good.
I took that batch and added back all (well most of) of the batch I had started in the vibe. I pulled out any pieces that I would consider still needing 60/90 and have a decent sized batch. I also added the remainder of the Picture Jasper I had. Since this rock has proven to me to be softer than what I originally thought, I think it is ready for the 120/220. We'll see.
This time I am not going to touch it other than visual to make sure that it is moving properly and for spritzing. I will let it go for 24-48 without interruption.
Now for the new Lortone batch, I am doing strictly Chrysacolla ... here are the pictures and since I know that this is softer I will check it every 3-4 days versus every 7.
The pictures are of WET rocks. As you can see, the color is breathtaking!!!
