Hi Gang, Well, I still havn't gotten a new bowl for the polish cycle, so I just ran them thru a tripoli cycle, then a polish cycle for 6 days. I took a bunch of photos of the finished stuff, so I put them in a slideshow format over on photo bucket. The all of these pics are of the various rocks that comprised the 8lbs of preforms, pebbles and beach agates. click on the link below and It should take you straight to the slideshow. If not, leave me a message and I will post all the pics separately on this thread. happy Thanksgiving, and thanks for all the help on my new tumbling adventure!! s17.photobucket.com/albums/b71/ThomasClark/11-26%20tumble/?albumview=slideshow

Those look great! Some did undercut and that is always frustrating but for the most part, that batch is sweet! Fran

Hi Tom . . . saw you on ebay and facebook.
I just joined this club. I will try to post something,but all thumbs today. Got down to -9f last night. Still below zero at 11 am. One place in La Pine was 28 below last night. My shop is closed down completly. I just finished a vib batch last week that I ran while I had the swine flu.It was a ten pound batch of highgrade petrified hardwoods.Just search ebay for hdg . . .you will see some of my fantastic woods I have. I also got a handfull of Eden Valley/Blue Forest twigs and saved all the end cuts for this batch.I was really pleased with the results.
