I have slabbed and cabbed a bunch of this material so I thought why not see how it tumbles? This picture is after 1 week of 60/90 on hammer broken material (this all came from one original piece). I tried to take the picture wet but they were drying fast. I am anxious to see how it finishes up since it was only $2 a pound. ![](http://i1183.photobucket.com/albums/x462/drummondislandrocks/DSC05548_zpse8901e4c.jpg) Chuck

I like it. They should have named it Halloween Jasper because of all the black and orange.....Mel

Must be soft as heck - shaped real fast. Can't wait to see how it polishes...

well unfortunately this stuff got worse in 120 grit and it really frosted the edges. I had it in a mixed rock batch though so I am going to put it aside till I get enough to run just this material with lots of cushioning. I think I am going to use krystee's obsidian method on the next batch of this stuff.
