You've got good kids! Excellent gift and I love the shirt!

Robin

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."

-- C.S. Lewis

It was really nice of them to do.
I loaded up one barrel last night and let my son load up the other with rocks that he's collected.
The 33b will be dedicated to all of the other stages after the first so I should be able to push out more tumbles faster- I'm hoping.

That shouldn't be a problem, I have buckets and buckets of agates and wood waiting to go in, not to mention a sfrb of obsidian that I can't wait to get to

Close to it, anyway. I like both those machines very much and would be my Sophie's choice picks, if I could only have two.

Be interesting what you come up with, but I would think that with your camera you should be able to get some good macro shotswithoutt any filters. What did you ordere?
