You did a great job on these! Nice and shiny - not an easy rock to tumble.

Gorgeous. Great looking job on those tumbles!
I got my Sodalite from The Rock Shed also. I got to pick through the bins of it he's got in the yard. He had quite a lot of it when I was there last month.

The more they over-think the plumbing, the easier it is to stop up the toilet.

Those look really good, CLErocks! I have some sodalight in stage 1 right now! Hopefully, mine will turn out as good.

So far, so good!Yeah...About 3/4 of this was in stage one for a couple of weeks, and only a small amount was ready after the first week. I had a few pieces that had a heavy dark brown rough coating, like a rind, almost? I think two might end up going back in because there is still a *little* bit left. Very exciting!

I find that kind of thing on a lot of the gold tiger rough that I've acquired. I'm thinking that for future tiger eye tumbles, I'll experiment with trying to remove that 'rough' from the rough.
