You've got a good mix! Tiger Eye is a favorite of mine!

You SHOULD be happy! They are coming along nicely... Even after only a single week they are taking on a nice shape. Good choice in rocks - all favs of mine. Keep us informed how they progress. I am eager to see how they turn out.

Very nice! Are you running these in a rotary tumbler? Very good shapes for a week's time!

Appears that the tiger eye is nice rough. The last I got was pretty sad, full of pits.

The last I got was pretty sad, full of pits. That's to bad, I'm pretty happy with how the ones I got turned out, where did you order yours from?

I really do not recall where. I am the original keeper of no records.

I really do not recall where. I am the original keeper of no records. I like the way you operate. I originally printed up some log note templates, back when I started this hobby. Those blank pages were eventually used to start my fire pit.

Great looking batch, with good mix of colors! Curious about where in West Texas the rocks are from? I've collected in some different areas out there and found some great material! Keep'em rollimg and can't wait to see them finished up!

Nice job. I got to get a vibe to finish my stuff off. Just too long in a rotary.
