Nice bunch of tumbles, Grant. You got a super shine going there. Blackskins are a lot of fun to tumble. Reminds me of Montanas, but less fractures. Great pics too!

That's pretty darn impressive for 3-4 days! They look great on their own but I really like the presentation in the bowl.

Each one a true nugget. I'm occasionally tempted to take a small tumble and slice an instant cab off with the trim or slab saw. Instant freeform produced.

Thanks all, I really enjoy this batch. They look fantastic in person being able to see through most of them etc. So much variation between rocks within the Blackskin agates it appears as well. Some were definitely dark, others as you can see are blue and orange/reddish.

Those look awesome, Grant. I've thought about buying some of those black skin agates, this might push me over the edge. Great pictures, too.

Really nice batch. There are several that would pass as Montana Agates. I thought the same thing about mine when I tumbled them.
