Your pictures reminded me of the 4 bookcases of books I had to transport everytime I moved. Except books are less dense than rocks! I don't envy the work lying ahead for you.

I have 12 heavy boxes of books I have to move also 😂

After a few course runs the color suddenly popped! Figure just 1 more course run then the vibe. Or maybe straight to the vibe and keep more of the wood characteristics.

I love the coloring and it took a really good polish. I left a lot of the wood characteristics also.

Here’s a couple of very unique petrified wood pieces we found this year. The top one I got from the Llano river. It’s so different from anything else I found. The other one I simply found in the woods. Only after I started cutting it did I realize it was agatized wood. I included both of these small slabs in the traveling box the other day.
