I like 12 and 13, but I love the brain rock in number 11. That would have been cool in the Halloween contest. Great batch!

Fantastic array of materials! All great shines and a few of them look like they might be difficult to polish (#1 & #17)! #12 & #13 are amazing! What is that stuff? Really like the Rio's (assuming they are Rio's).
BTW- Took your advice and started letting the 120/220 run for 48 hours, just adding a little water as needed. Didn't notice much difference from my washing every 12 hours. Thanks for the info!

Very nice batch , as usual . Like them all but the green moss really stands out as my pick . What is the yellow one in #11 ? We have found some that were very similar on Superior . Probably not even close but look similar . I am terrible with rock id but slowly catching on .

Most likely a scrap from making this pendant. www.etsy.com/listing/264773408/dendritic-opal-wire-wrapped-pendantChuck

So , I'm assuming unless our Lake Superior rocks took a long boat ride , they are not as similar as I thought . Told you rock id isn't my strong point . Thanks Chuck Rich

Thanks jamesp. Brazilian would be the other likely choice. I forgot those have that effect sometimes. Especially on the outer edges it seems. Chuck
