Decided to start a new topic for these. Still at it and not giving up. Processes used: 7/12 started with medium grit, as they had already been through rough stage. The 3 lb barrel had a mix of tears and cabs, 7/20 move all to pre polish. 8/1 removed from 3 lb. tumbler with cabs. Now in 1 lb tumbler by themselves. Pre polish. 8/12 started polish stage. Added plastic beads and tile spacers. Brief period with suede cloth squares and sugar. 8/20 determined polish was “bad”. Total cleanout and cleansing. Started over in 3 TBS AO 12,000 polish and new tumbling pellets. Ratio of about 60% Tears to 40% pellets. 9/1 added an additional 2 TBS polish. 9/12 not much change in size or shine. Added another 2 TBS polish. Will check in a few days. Today's photos tears 2 tears 1 Input appreciated. Thanks.

I have no helpful advice but they look good so far! I only tried these once and it was not good at all
