Thanks for the suggestion... The closest one on that list is an hour and forty minutes It did get me looking, however and it turns out there's a club about twenty miles to the west I'll have to check it out Thanks again! |

I don't tumble and don't know the costs involved. Many people make tumbled cabs. Creating a scene and shape using a trim saw. Many people use a relatively inexpensive tile saw. Cabbing equipment and supplies vary from expensive to very expensive.
I've bought some tumbled cabs to recut as regular cabs when the material was particularly nice. If you plan on doing this, start with thicker slabs because tumbling eats a lot of material. Tumbled cabs have a very nice polish and trimming up the slabs can produce nice scenes.

Have you visited the rock shop in Torrington, Wy? Nice people...an elderly couple that have had that rock shop for more than 50 years.

I actually think I will try this. I have looked at the cabbing equipment and supplies and you would be correct on the cost! I have a small pile going now- but it's growing almost daily  Thanks! |
