Hello from Columbus Ohio... Go Bucks!
I purchased a tumbler for my daughter several years ago for Christmas. Needless to say i have a new hobby. I love watching the rocks transform from the rough to the beautiful and i like the idea of doing it myself from scratch. Tumbling has also sparked my interest in jewelry making. I inherited a few nice chunks of rock. It's all a work in progress. Peace and Hope!!

Welcome from Northern Arizona!

Robin

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."

Welcome to the forums from the Desert Southwest!

That is a funny story. Isn't that the way it always works out?!? Good think that you bought a present that you could ultimately enjoy using yourself some day.

Perhaps some time you might have a chance to post some photos. In the meantime enjoy, and have a look around.
