WOW.... now that my brain is the consistency of porridge....
I'm amazed at the number of people here that are really into this with big projects! TONS of information.
I guess my intentions are to just do some lame rock tumbling. I see that you can buy packs of raw, un-tumbled stones. I've looked at some of the craft stores before and found most of what comes in their bags are hunks of junk I could've easily plucked from my driveway.
What I'm searching for is colorful and unique "stuff" to make it worthwhile. My kids have always been interested in the bright, colorful stones you see at the science stores. Those places charge you your first born and an arm or leg per piece. Especially the healing semi precious stones. Which is what I'm looking for.
I have this fear of spending hard earned money to be disappointed with driveway quality results!
What would be helpful is suggestions of reputable people that have this.
I probably have this post in the wrong area, I apologize if so!
