Bob I think I see a definite trend which confirms that the 50 pounds of Tin Oxide I bought at a super bargain price has put my polishing efforts in a great place.

This is excellent news. I JUST acquired some tin oxide from the rock shed. Super excited to use it now.

  If only I had known how good T is for this in the contest a few years ago. Chr was predicted by literature. 3rd photo was blurry. Deleted original and retook and posted below on June 9. |

I can't remember but know it was purchased somewhere. I haven't tumbled very much of it. Did it originally look way different? I was looking at some to buy and it looks way different than your finished product. |

I know what you mean, as I bought some large pieces recently and they are like that.
All I can remember was it was sort of a flat plate, with one side botroidal, and I sort of broke it up and kept coarse grinding away until all crevices were gone. Just can't remember much else.
Some material for sale is tight, and some is full of holes.
The color reminds me of greenish seawater. I hope to make much more of it.
