I do like that breciated material, but I'd have to say your second set of favorites are my favorite. Looks like they all took a great polish!

They all took a great polish - but my phone pic taking skills need some work.

Those look great. I need to get over to Flint Ridge. I live an hour away but just can't seem to find the time to make it over there to do some collecting. Those tumbles might just be the motivation I needed!

Used to shoot location portraits back in the day, I can go mobile! Especially if you are near Crossville and I can get a few rounds in at Fairfield Glade.

Looking good, Todd. I have a batch of those in right now. Looks like they're going to take a while I hope mine turn out as good as yours.

Like that flint! I have some interesting pieces that I picked up from caliche roads around west Houston. Some look similar to some of yours. I need to get my tumbler working again so I can get them going.

I would argue that you only have one cool rock in Ohio. Here in Michigan, we have an enormous variety of cool rocks. Petoskey stones, Lakers, jaspelite, datolite, Kona dolomite, hematite, mohawkite, unakite, copper, silver, gold, greenstone, oh and we have chert/flint too. But I will agree that Todd's flint is really nice.

Dang, I'm about 2 hrs northeast of Crossville at the VA border.

It wasn't supposed to be an exhaustive list, but that was a pretty huge omission.
