I work weekends so Monday is my Rock Tumbler Day and these just came out of the final stage today. Got some rose quartz, moon stone, lapis, and blood stone. I picked one of the best of each to send to a friend in New York. He's doing a bit of redecorating at his place to make it more goth like him so I know these will fit into his ascetic. Plus who doesn't love shiny rocks?

jamijr that there is a nice tumble. Great job on the shape and shine. About the title though... something is off there. I'm a Garfield, I hate Mondays.

I've got normal weekends but sometimes get off pretty early and have time to fool around with my rocks. I'm to far into this hobby. I don't think I'm gonna be able to get out .

I've washed rocks in temperatures below thirty and cabbed in below 20. My family thinks I'm insane lol. I call it my stress outlet... so basically I'd go crazy without it. I've gone pretty immune to cold because of it...

My chiropractor said I had to de-stress before I explode. I came back to the Motorhome, washed up my calcite that has been tumbling in dry corn cob and polish for 3 weeks, cleaned out the other 5 barrels and reset them. Three weeks of neck pain GONE! All because of my rocks.
