Very nice!!! It seems the longer they are in polish the better they get. I like the Wonderstone? the best.

These are nice, especially the ones in the ninth frame of the green high contrasting with the light blue and reddish brown. It almost looks opalized.

Very nice!!! It seems the longer they are in polish the better they get. I like the Wonderstone? the best. Is this really true? I assume that you'd have diminishing returns at some point but if this is true than I'm putting most of my finished stones back in for more polishing. |

Congrats on finding a job you love! That's great! Thanks for posting your latest tumble. I totally relate to the "finally" part! The results were worth the wait! I have a stone that looks like your third photo (the white, orange & yellow striped), and I'm really surprised it took a shine! I'm going to try mine now. Looking at the perfect shine on your rocks leads me to believe I need to run mine longer in the polish. Thanks again for posting!
