They are nice. Mind sharing where the rough came from.

Very impressive tumble. You seem to tumble a pretty large quantity of higher end material. What do you do with your collection?

Wow. Wow. Wow. That’s a lot of beautiful banding. I have a whole batch of those rollling now. I hope mine turn out as good as yours.

About 3 dozen reasons for tumbling addiction.
I am giving lemon jade a go. A softer stone I purchased off of Ebay. Am inspired by your soft stone tumbles.

Nice work. I like Bots alot. It's always neat to see the banding when the "skin" is removed.

youp50 as Garage Rocker pointed out rough is from Rock Shed. They sell Blue Bots and "regular" (?) Bots. I also bought from Kingsley North and will be posting pics of those next.

Chuck At this point I only have a small display area in my rock room downstairs where some of my favorites are set out. Rest are just in bags and plastic containers now. I'd like to install some shelves or a cabinet down there and may make it a winter project. If I get it done (my plans sometimes bigger than my motivation) I'll certainly post it.

My eyes were drawn to the images. Obviously adhering to the adage "Real men don't read instructions." Or in this case original post.
I have several pounds of Bots from the Rockshed. Currently sorting and slicing. A few more pounds from Rocktumbler.
