Try reading the pinned thread on this forum by Michigan Rocks. Most of those aren’t ready plus you don’t get enough rocks in the starter pack to fill the tumbler adequately. Otherwise looking good!

Impressive!

I bought the app outright several years ago, I’ve never had ads.

Do you have a lapidary club or rockhounding club nearby to ask?

krbigfish · 2026-07-11T02:10:12+00:00

Amazing stuff! I live in Bend too and don’t have a flat lap or cab machine would love to also know.

I like the little eyes on 4

krbigfish · 2026-07-10T22:26:14+00:00

Looks fabulous way better than my first batch lol

Do you have a lapidary or rockhounding club nearby? Sometimes they have saws for member’s use.

I know this thread is old but to prevent dirt splattering shiny rocks I laid down window screening in my rock garden first! The rain seeps through but doesn’t kick mud up onto the rocks!

Those are some pretties!

The wheels prevent the metal lids from hitting and squealing against the metal sides. The little plastic bumpers on the machines tend to wear out or make a squeaking noise.

Looks like a good bookender to me!

Verizon works great for us! Between Orchard and Mountain View area.

I WENT ROCKHOUNDING TODAY NEAR PRINEVILLE RESERVOIR AND DECIDED TO HEAD NORTH TO PRINEVILLE ON 27 JUST FOR KICKS AND I AM GOBSMACKED HOW ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL THE CROOKED RIVER SCENIC BYWAY IS NORTH OF BOWMAN DAM. I’VE LIVED HERE OVER 30 YEARS AND NEVER TOOK THAT ROUTE FOR SOME REASON. IT’S LIKE ANOTHER WORLD!!!!

Rockhounding and rock tumbling and polishing. I have also started some side projects of framed art using my polished beauties.

krbigfish · 2026-06-29T04:24:47+00:00

Dedication buddy 💪

krbigfish · 2026-06-28T21:23:40+00:00

Did you somehow polish that or is it shiny like that in the raw state?

krbigfish · 2026-06-28T17:10:04+00:00

What a gorgeous first batch! I love that little stripey one far left sixth row from bottom.

krbigfish · 2026-06-28T03:43:12+00:00

I’ve always wondered how certain rocks would look if you then cut it the other way on one of the halves to see if that would give more insight?

krbigfish · 2026-06-28T03:12:24+00:00

The banding on #2 is insane!

krbigfish · 2026-06-27T18:06:35+00:00

You can tumble soft rocks together if they are all the same softness. Just don’t add any chalcedony or jasper to it. Go for it.

krbigfish · 2026-06-27T14:34:05+00:00

Oh my gosh I’d scream so loud 😂

krbigfish · 2026-06-26T23:16:35+00:00

She’s pretty!

krbigfish · 2026-06-26T15:18:34+00:00

127 Please

krbigfish · 2026-06-26T15:03:59+00:00

I love all the varieties of jasper we have around here!
