So I got a Loto of rocks and tumble cabs working....just changed from 500 sc to 1000 ao. They look mighty good, some tumbles been rolling off and on for 3 years! Hey I am gone a wandering 6 moths out of the year! Plus I put the tumbles in the rotary barrel with the coarse grit and let it roll a month or 7 weeks before clean out and selection of tumbles ready to move to the Loto. Then I add more rocks recharge with coarse sc grit and roll again! I will have one more Loto load out b4 the end of May.

@shotgunner This is what I put together for the prize. It's a LFRB of end cuts, trimming pieces, and rough rock. It is pretty random material.
There's slag glass, stick agate, pseudomorph, pietersite, opal, sodalite, lapis, tiger eye, labradorite, opal butte rhyolite, a variety of pet woods, mexican purple opal, amazonite, ocean jasper, psilomolene, black jade, and more. I think I also tossed in a few fire agates
Some will require a hammer to break up to tumbling size, and some may not be worth the trouble lol.

Hey @shotgunner , please clarify - Is the wonderful prize so thoughtfully being provided by Roger being given this month, or for June's competition? Seems he said: ... But - I will sponsor next month's (June 2016) contest prize, if okay. I have a 12# Star Diamond rotary tumbler with a Lortone 12# Barrel that I don't want or need. It is used, but both parts are in good condition. Photos of it are posted in "The buy sell and swap shop" section of the members forum.
EDIT: After talking with Scott more, I will put together a flat-rate box of small rough to send the winner  Roger Thank yoouuuuuu!!! And thank you, Roger! |

I'll probably enter next month... and take a photo of my before pre polish as that is all that I can at this point. Got a while to go before final polish stage... But I will have 10 gallons of tumbled stones to choose from.
