Hi all! I am a total newbie. My husband bought me a rock tumbler for my birthday a few years ago- I used it and liked it, but the band holding the barrel together broke.
I was fortunate enough to come across a heavy duty rock tumbler with two barrels, and a whole box of rocks, some grit and a huge chunk of rose quartz and white quartz for $4.00 last weekend and can't wait to use it!
Glad to find a place I can learn about this!

Thanks! I had the opportunity to get some rocks from the lake my parents live by this weekend. I think I got some pretty good stuff!

Howdy, Tell her Toad, she has no clue how much time she will be spending here. It is a very fun place and a great environment. Great score by the way, $4 you can't go wrong there.

Welcome to what I consider to be the best rockhounding website in the world. I live in Texas and have found some pet wood, agates, jasper, and flint. I have had some great trades and deals from the members here. And, best of all, I've made some awesome new friends. Once again, welcome.
