Rock tumbling newbie. Operating 2 CE 6lb tumblers. Graduated from youtube university so I'm feeling like a pro already 😆. I became interested in tumbling after finding a piece of (what I now know to be) Quartz that resembled a figurine. After searching the web I came across the wonderful world of rock tumbling. Being in Maryland I usually only get river rocks but I occasionally order online. And NO. I will not be tumbling my figurine even though nobody sees what I see. I like being a unicorn.

Welcome to the forum from South Dakota! This had me rolling! LOL : "Graduated from youtube university so I'm feeling like a pro already" Don't laugh too fast, Jason. Did you know that the top three winners of this year's World Wide Rock Tumbling Contest all learned from some guy on YouTube? That's what I heard anyway. Welcome to the forum blackgirlrocks! I respect your credentials!

Did you know that the top three winners of this year's World Wide Rock Tumbling Contest all learned from some guy on YouTube? That's what I heard anyway. Welcome to the forum blackgirlrocks ! I respect your credentials! Ouch. Just to be clear...I never would have made any kind of comment like I did, had the OP not included a "laughing at her own comment" emoji. Without the emoji...and the implication she was poking fun at her own comment, I might have thought it was funny...but not said anything. I know there are oodles of people who have benefitted from YouTube videos...and your videos are at the top of the list - as is evidenced by your comment about the tumbling contest. Heck...I taught myself how to cab and wrap via YouTube videos...so I'm well aware of their benefits.
