I bought another estate yesterday and hauled some of it home last night. There are all kinds of things in this one but there are buckets and buckets of tumbling rough. Most of the tumbling rough was sorted by color and most of it is quality ready to tumble material, it was sorted to go into a tumbler but never made it there. Small flat rate box $9 plus $6 shipping Medium flat rate box $35 $25 plus $12 shipping Large flat rate box $50 $40 plus $16 shipping Here are some pics for you. The first load Some buckets I can do this price until the buckets run out. Have a great day...............Tony

I was dumping a few buckets into my 55 gal drum of tumbling rough to top it off and noticed that some of the dark green tumbling rough is green Bruneau chunks, I haven't seen any with orbs in it yet, but some is definitely Bruneau. And while I was dumping it in I realized you can buy it off my website for less $ than I was offering it on here for, so I lowered the prices.
There is lots of larger cutting rough in the trailer too like Graveyard Point agate,various Owyhee jaspers, petrified wood, opalite, if anyone wants a good deal on some of it let me know. Since it is all sorted I am reluctant to dump it all into the big pile, and I really don't have room to store a forest of buckets. Some will eventually end up in the big pile because lots of the buckets are already broken, so if you know what you want let me know and I will get it before I have to search the big pile for it.
Have a great day..................Tony

.... and the Catmandewe Mountains continue to rise in Tony's backyard!!!! ;D snuffy Hey Snuffy, I'm doing my best to bring a lot of it down here to central Texas! ;D When I visited Tony at his place last year I realized that I would need a HUGE area to store what he has. I'll just have to settle for a ton or two. Denny

Tony's motto ought to be "moving Idaho around the world one FRB at a time"
I'm doing my part!
Best regards, Jack

JR,
I don't know whether you meant me or Tony, but I seem to get at least one LFRB from Tony a month, sometimes more. What's really bad (or great depending on your point of view) is that when I see him I wind up getting a LOT more rocks than just a LFRB. Plus the education when hounding with him is priceless for a newbee.

Hi Tony,
I need 2 LFRB of your rough.... PM me with your PP addy, and a total. I am not new to RTH. I just do not post a lot. I have done Biz with Bo, and Marie Frazier Burgess is a good friend. I would like some tumbling rough, and anything you can send that is a bit larger. Not choosey, a handful each from lotsa buckets is fine... I would like some color.... Green is good!! LOL.
I only have a small mole hill here, and am working on a Minnesota mountain range....
Thanks!!
Terri

I got my FRB in from Mr. Mandewe yesterday and all I can say is send Tony your money, you will NOT have any regrets!
As soon as I can scrape some more funds together, I'll be asking for another box of the best of Idaho to come my way.
Thanks, Tony!

Hi Tony, have never bought from you on internet just in Quartzite, so leave me know how we handle this. I would like a Med box, use as much as I can for slabbing and will tumble rest, like Owhyee and most all rocks.
Do you need my mailing addresse or will you pick it up off of paypal.
milto@cheqnet.net
Looking forward to completing transaction.

Nice haul. I have a 6 inch saw with a nice rock clamp and slide system. Do you have any picture jasper or mix that includes it and bright colorful stuff like chrysocollo? Or slabs or a mix of rough and slabs? I am a newbie and a old cowboy so started with turquoise and want to learn how to make pic jasper for my western riding friends. Thanks, Bill
