October batch finished this morning...Some of the fancy stuff I bought is finally starting to get finished. Top left is Tiger Eye, middle left is Mookaite and Polychrome jasper, bottom left is local pet wood, bottom middle is Aventurine, right side to middle is various local stuff, and top middle is small West Coast agates I'm tumbling for a friend. He's got an 8" vase he wants filled with the small agates and seeing as he got me a 5 gal pail (70 lbs) of the West Coast agates I figured it was the least I could do...

Thank you all for the likes and comments! Some of the agates aren't as rounded as I would have liked but I realized early on I had to lower my standards or watch them disappear. Something is better than nothing I thought and besides (silver lining) they have more edges to catch the light ... largest one is about 1/2 " ( forgot to include a coin or something in the photo for reference).
