Is that Rockshed material or Rocktumber.com stuff? I haven't started my Bots yet, but that's a very encouraging picture. Might have to buy more.

Thanks for looking Chuck Drummond Island Rocks They are coming along nice. The Lakers are so much nicer looking then Bots. Being from Minnesota I am saying that because I am nonbiased .................MrP

I do not usually get too exited about clean outs but all this banding gets the blood flowing. Chuck

Rob, I have a couple handfuls of the Rocktumbler bots going. They are looking really nice. I just did clean out yesterday, before I saw this, so no pics. I threw all the most rounded and least flawed ones in, but still expect it to be a couple month grind. That deal came at a good time, my stash of Rock Shed bots was dwindling. Next clean out, I'll snap a pic.

That's encouraging. After Garage Rocker posted pics of his bots, I bought 10 lbs from Rocktumbler. I'm going to have to find a way to work them in. Drummond Island Rocks, just a question for you, however. Is that your entire batch of rocks that are running right now? I ask as I'm not seeing alot of smalls but am amazed at the one week progress. Or, did you just pull these aside for the photos? Thanks. Dave
