I think you did a fantastic job on the polish of this batch! That first "big one" does kind of steal the show! Great video showing these off as well!

Nice patterns that you've got there, as well as a super shine. Looks like you've got the photography down too.

That large Mexican Crazy Lace is pretty awesome! I like showing the larger rocks to people who don't have experience with rocks. I try to hand them the rock and they almost always say no or show some discomfort in the idea. Once it's in their hands you can see the change in their eyes as their hands discover a new thing in life.
The video really shows off the shine you got on these, nice work!
Where did you get the Bahia agates? I need to try tumbling those sometime, they look so cool!

Great job on the tumbles and the pictures! That large crazy lace in the video is amazing!

Beautiful rocks! The one with the perfectly circular "eye" is particularly enticing :-)

Where did you get the Bahia agates? All the rocks came from The Rock Shed. I'm glad everyone likes the rocks. I think this batch was probably one of the bests I've done so far. I'm almost done with all my bahia agates and crazy lace agates though. There's none left running in coarse, and I think I just started the last bit in 120/220 so the next two batches that come out of polish should be mostly bahia and crazy lace. After that though, I've already got enough tiger's eye done with stage 1 to start some going in stage 2 as soon as I have an empty barrel for it. I think I'll have my first completed ones in 2 - 3 months. I'm excited about those.
