Ok, the heart -may- be improving. I figure it is a loss so I am leaving it in to see what happens.
So some question about material in the vibe. Obsidian, Wyoming Jade and wonderstone are all not getting a glossy finish.
The other jaspers are looking great.
I know Obsidian is softer, and there are other polishes for that, and from what I see in the wonderstone it is too porous to polish, but the Jade, the black material with metallic flecks, that is a mystery... Anyone know how to make it shine?
Everything is back in the vibe regardless, planning 2-3 more days of tumbling in polish.
Thanks for any help!

ThomasT: It always has amazed my mind that there are about 7.5 gallons in one cubic foot... I suppose due to an optical mental illusion from drinking thousands of gallons of milk...
