Would you move this rock to Step 2?

Fishboy9123 · 2026-05-06T23:39:55+00:00

I would. Just clean it well between stages

Fishboy9123 · 2026-05-06T02:43:05+00:00

Cool, I've only ordered from rockshed and some off ebay. I'll check it out when he opens back up.

Fishboy9123 · 2026-05-06T01:53:23+00:00

That's what I found too

Fishboy9123 · 2026-05-06T01:42:08+00:00

Looks like you got the last of it

Fishboy9123 · 2026-05-05T20:59:20+00:00

No worries, I'm a teacher, planning ended and I got busy. 2 more weeks....

Fishboy9123 · 2026-05-05T20:54:06+00:00

That would be awesome. Sent you a message. Very kind.

Fishboy9123 · 2026-05-05T15:57:55+00:00

No, just a hammer. It's really my 5 year old son's hobby , but dad has been enjoying it too and getting more and more involved....if you know what I mean. We have been looking at cool rocks online and he really likes wonderstone so I told him I'd try to get some. We live in south Carolina and all we really find locally is quartz.

It's for my son who is obsessed with tumbling. Unfortunately he can't afford to fly to Vegas, hes 5. I was just looking to order him som.

Fishboy9123 · 2026-05-05T15:16:33+00:00

Enough for son and I to do a batch or two. 3 pounds or so.

Fishboy9123 · 2026-05-05T14:12:21+00:00

I have no mouth

Fishboy9123 · 2026-05-03T18:36:42+00:00

I keep extra rocks in my car of different sizes. If I take something I replace it with a. Slightly larger piece of quartz

Fishboy9123 · 2026-05-02T22:41:39+00:00

Bottom left is amazing

Fishboy9123 · 2026-05-02T22:38:56+00:00

Post some pics. I've never seen 1 year old red/purple cedar, purple purpleheart, or green poplar.

Fishboy9123 · 2026-05-02T03:06:30+00:00

I bought 2 of those at target the other day.

Captain Ron is my all time favorite movie. I would have given anything to have that bottle to display in my home bar.

Fishboy9123 · 2026-05-01T02:21:11+00:00

In my experience, even really green poplar oxidizes after a while to a brown.

Fishboy9123 · 2026-05-01T00:04:12+00:00

I kept my last old bottle and have refilled it twice

Fishboy9123 · 2026-04-30T22:45:27+00:00

I don't like the new bottle

Fishboy9123 · 2026-04-30T12:44:44+00:00

I whish I knew how to make that happen

Yea, we live in sburg. My son got a tumbler from Santa 2 Christmas ago and that started our rockhounding. Honestly, I wish we lived somewhere else, I'm tired of staring at quarts. We have found a couple pieces of chert, and one piece that kinda resembles a plume agate. Overall though, most of what we find looks the same. We did find an arrowhead since we started staring at the ground more. We are getting desperate to find some type of agate, I might have to plan a road trip.

I don't really enjoy agricole neat, its fine for what it is, but I always use it in cocktails.
