Some tumbler troubles coming, I'm sure.

These are from our vacation in southern Oregon and the areas where we collected them.

Along the beach at Bandon, Oregon.

Got rocks? Hunting on Social Security Bar (yes, that's the real name!).

Further up river.

You're welcome, but that's hardly my design. Lots of people were making rock scoops of various types before I even started rock hunting. Yours looks good. I see a lot of people using that same end.

The end is from The Dollar Store. I went for cheap in case there were going to be several modifications, plus if it broke replacements would be easy to find. It needs a fortified lip area for better scooping action, but works well on the beach and in water, and it certainly saves our backs from too much bending over.

You did good.

RickB: Cheaper by the dozen? Nov 10, 2024 7:07:13 GMT -5 *

rocknrob: That had better be a good sandwich for that price, otherwise you're better off making one yourself. Nov 10, 2024 21:10:43 GMT -5

amygdule: I like my sandwich made by a talented artist that deserves a Tip...Thank You Nov 11, 2024 7:12:10 GMT -5 *

rocknrob: I make my own sandwiches and yet I never tip myself... OMG I'm the a@@hole! Nov 11, 2024 11:29:51 GMT -5

amygdule: Her sandwich taste better... Nov 11, 2024 17:07:29 GMT -5 *

rocknrob: There was a shop in Portland, don't know if it's still there called Kenny and Zukes who made the absolute best pastrami sandwiches I have ever had. The problem is every restaurant thinks their sandwich is worth $20 now and seldom makes the grade. Nov 12, 2024 9:53:31 GMT -5

rocknrob: So, to end my thread on sandwiches. If you find your sandwich worthy of that price by all means keep going to that restaurant (chewie)
