These rocks all were purchased from the buy and sell section of the board. Bulk of them would be from the approximately 35# of tumbling rough I bought from drocknut . I also bought Jaspers, Moss Agate, and Petwood from her, all pretty nice. A little of the Petwood is here but most of the rest isn't sized yet. Didn't get as much saw time this year as I'd hoped.

Anyway on to the pics. This group would be some of the "plainer" pieces. Still colorful and took a nice shine.

Some Montana and other Agates.

Dendrites in most. These look much better in person.

Agates of various type.

Colorful mix of Agates and Jaspers.

Petwood. Some I left a little rough so it would look like wood.

Zoom in on my faves from previous pic.

Procrastination group. Rio Grande from Sabre52 I sliced a couple years ago but just got around to cleaning up saw nubs and tumbling. One piece from Donnie's Rocky Treasures 's Rocky Treasures maybe 4 years ago, bottom right.

Very nice, great job. For now I'm in the same camp as you with wood. If it has some interesting "woody" characteristics I think I'd rather leave that in than to tumble it perfectly smooth. Just my personal taste.

They all look great. The rock in the bottom right corner of photo #4 looks like it's filled with grass. Very neat.

I really like the round, red one in the group agate picture, lower left hand corner.

Those are from drocknut. As far as I know she collects most of her own. They may be from Utah.

I did collect most of the rocks I sold for tumbling rough. I have never collected in Cedar City area so none are from that area. Most of the materials are from Arizona and Montana but also probably other locations are mixed in.

rocknrob: There was a shop in Portland, don't know if it's still there called Kenny and Zukes who made the absolute best pastrami sandwiches I have ever had. The problem is every restaurant thinks their sandwich is worth $20 now and seldom makes the grade. Nov 12, 2024 9:53:31 GMT -5

rocknrob: So, to end my thread on sandwiches. If you find your sandwich worthy of that price by all means keep going to that restaurant (chewie)
