Okay, I know this stuff. It's the Amazonite/Orthoclase Moonstone I sent you. They look nicely rounded. Use lots of cushion and I got those good results adding a little Dove soap. Good luck sweetie. Of course, I did mine in the vibe starting at 220. Looking forward to seeing how these do. Jo

Thank you Joanne .... it is a bit of a persnickety rock and right now it is in the Lortone rotary with LOTS of cushion.

As with the obsidians .... I think I will leave it in the rotary so as not to beat it up.

I can't wait to see it finished.

As always ... my humble thanks

Those are shaping up nicely, I'm looking forward to seeing the end results. I have probably more than 1000 pounds of stuff that I collected with Jo locally last year. Way too much to cab, thinking about tumbling some of it. I need a bigger tumbler though.
