I believe that some of the stuff I picked up out west is rhyolite, it is common there, but I'm not sure. Thanks!

OOOWEEE Pups, Thats a preview of some of the stuff you sent me. A couple of the pieces were really big (too big for a pendant) but I left them that way just to see what they would do. It's amazing how some of the rocks I didn't hold out much hope for just blossomed in the tumbler. Great banding

One of my faves had big holes with quartz in them, it's gonna be too cool! I'm hooked on these babies too!

If you hit the speed bumbs really fast, you hardly feel them at all.

Cookster, I am so glad you like them!!!
I was worried about it, since you hadn't mentioned, and I've been too chicken to ask.
Some big boulders of that stuff is out on the patio where it spent the winter, on warm days I have hosed at it a bit. Today I was looking again, and I've got at least one rock that is mind boggling -- looks like it has a great banded pattern throughout.
I'm really looking forward to seeing what you come out with!
