This little batch was a cast off batch originally. After bringing a 15# batch in Big Red out of coarse, I picked out the best to go into 120/200 in Lil' Ed (2 three# barrells). This batch is what was left after "the best" was picked out. When I got my new vibe, I started this because it weighed exactly 3#. So it's: Rotary coarse 60/90 one month Vibe 120/220 1 1/2 weeks Vibe 600 1 week Vibe tripoli 3 days I haven't started polish yet and check this out. Amethyst, rose quartz and (local) clear quartz. (prettier in person) Some little emeralds Ive had a while but thought were too small to tumble. I'm thinking of having a custom ring made from 3 of these. One little very clear, very green one is just awesome. (Listening, Doc?) Also a little Lapis and a shiney, black ? My best closeup, too! Some of the really pretty mook I have (mostly in Lil' Ed right now) and some blue lace agate, sans lace. These were leftovers There's lots more in there but these stood out. I just put them in CO. No peeking for 3 days. My my, these are going to be pretty if I do say so myself. And I do cookie

Those turned out really nice, you got a great shine on that mook. I know pictures never really do the shine justice on rocks, however, you can really see the shine. Tami

Those already look like they've been through polish. Looks like that's going to be a great batch!
