Wow very nice! I can’t get any big pieces to polish on my lap. Get to about 1000 and I see scratches that I missed. I need to transfer my patients with tumbling into working the flat.

I have a couple random scratches on them, and I missed some saw marks on a big one that will have to go back to the 60/90. This whole batch took three days start to finish (with about 2hrs labor and 72 hrs stress lol) for some reason. This is only my second batch, so I'm associating it with beginners luck, the rock gods looking out for me, and awesome rockshed ao. That stuff is legendary!  |

LOL I actually thought you meant to say "hard" rock. LOL It doesn't take much for me lol. I think it's just a personality trait by now. I'm blaming this one on auto correct! |
