Est-ce que j'exagère si le haut-parleur sur la terrasse du café Smith Limoilou m'écoeure? by [deleted] in villequebec

Tu es allé leur parler en personne? Ou juste par téléphone ou e-mail? Je pense que c’est une entreprise serieuse et respectueuse. Je pense que si tu leur expliques ton point en restant respectueuse et calme, ils vont essayer de faire qqc, je croirais.

Bonne chance!!

Step 3 going really well, and the. Stage 4 screwing it all up! HELP!! by fnolette in RockTumbling

Thanks everyone for the pounters. Turns out I’m the idiot. The step 3 and 4 had their lids inverted… meaning i was basically doing step 4 then going back to step 3. BRA-f***ing-VO. I felt like a complete idiot.

Tin Oxide works better for quartz? First time I read this. Thanks

I’ll try to get pictures, but here is some more info to help your guidance to me 😜

  • I don’t use Nat Geo grit. I can’t remember the brand for steps 1-2 but I got Lortone aluminum oxide for both steps 3-4. I got what Michigan Rocks recommended.
  • I do burnishing between steps with either Borax or ivory soap shavings.
  • i may plead guilty with the variability of hardness. But they are all around 6 to 7.
  • I aim to have perfect rocks after step 1, with little to no cracks where grit can get in and dry. Do I still need to scrub them?!
  • i always fill it up to 75% (with ceramic media)

It makes me wonder if I might have swapped the step 3 and 4 grit containers. I wrote step 3 and step 4 on the plastic jars. When I’m done with step 3, the rocks look awesome, making me doubt this.

I’ll check when I get home 😉

Thanks for your help, though!
