This is the last 6 lb. barrel I took out today.

This is from two 6 lb. barrels out of polish last week.

Some turned out great and some not so great. Had a lot of green Jasper, Hichorite, etc. I got from Banjo and several pieces of Flintridge Flint. There is about every kind of rock from lace agate to pet. wood. Maybe when I get the time, I will separate some of them and take some pics. Most of them have a great shine, but it doesn't show that well.

If you find the time, we'd love to see them seperated. Great shine! Aren't you proud? You should be, well done! cookie

hey trish great mix you got alot of great lookin stones in there i think they came out real nice -- if you have some that didnt shine as nice as the others try another polish on them ,, i dont do anuff tumbling latly to be an expert but i have seen others re-polish with a dif kind of polish and they came out great with the second try so if your not happy with some go for it-- you might get a surprise
