Silvia Rasmussen<p>Final product. <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/rocktumbling" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>rocktumbling</span></a> some just didn’t want to shine up.</p>
Silvia Rasmussen<p>After 10 days of step 2 of <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/rocktumbling" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>rocktumbling</span></a>. They are some of the better pieces in the batch. I’m a little concerned about the white edges. Some of the other <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/rocks" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>rocks</span></a> were still pretty pitty so I’m going to run step 1 again. We’ll see what happens. I’ll probably pass on to step 3, rather than run another step 2.</p>
Silvia Rasmussen<p>After round two of <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/rocktumbling" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>rocktumbling</span></a>. On to pre polish.</p>

Jami<p>Now I don't actually expect strangers to buy me stuff. But because I've got my rock tumbler going again for the 1st time in months I'm going to take a chance &amp; post my "SHINIES!" wish list just in case. <br><a href="https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/17EXS5CNNG094?ref_=wl_share" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/17EX</span><span class="invisible">S5CNNG094?ref_=wl_share</span></a><br><a href="https://social.horrorhub.club/tags/wishlist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>wishlist</span></a> <a href="https://social.horrorhub.club/tags/rocktumbling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>rocktumbling</span></a> <a href="https://social.horrorhub.club/tags/rocks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>rocks</span></a> <a href="https://social.horrorhub.club/tags/rockhound" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>rockhound</span></a> <a href="https://social.horrorhub.club/tags/rocktumblinghobby" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>rocktumblinghobby</span></a></p>

Mattie<p>And so, my first excursion into the world of rock tumbling has come to an end. Some rocks I sprayed with a glossy finish, some I left matte— I think both have their own unique beauty to them. It’s been quite the journey! <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/rockhound" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>rockhound</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/rockhouding" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>rockhouding</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/rocktumbling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>rocktumbling</span></a></p>

Chris SikkengaTaking longer than expected. It has been in over 24hrs. I guess I should check my math.

Silvia Rasmussen<p><a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Rocktumbling" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Rocktumbling</span></a> after 9 days of step 1, we move on to step 2. I had to hold back a bunch that weren’t ready to move on. They will be tumbled with the next batch of step 1.</p>
Chris SikkengaLaptop died Sunday. Finally got to look at it tonight. So much for trusting my gut with SSD purchase 3 yrs ago. My other kingston drive has been going 8 yrs. Sigh.<br> <br> Decided to take a moment after that frustration and reload the tumblers. One is polishing. One is starting stage 1. The other one has been going 2 weeks at stage 2 or 3, I don't remember at the moment.<br> <br> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/rockhound?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#rockhound</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/rocktumbling?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#rocktumbling</a>

Chris SikkengaA few from the latest batch of rocks. They are mostly worry stones, but a few of the smaller ones might be good for jewelry if I ever find time again.<br> <br> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/rocktumbling?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#rocktumbling</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/rockhound?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#rockhound</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/worrystone?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#worrystone</a>

"Don't buy a Chicago Electric rock tumbler, they're nothing but trouble and break down a lot. Buy a Lortone." Meanwhile a year later my CE has been running fine, just had to replace the barrels due to friction wearing holes in them. Meanwhile the Lortone despite everything looking normal, belt good and tight, keeps stopping every couple of hours and needs to be restarted by hand.

@peachfront I’m so excited to find a rock tumbling community on Mastodon today!!
It’s a new hobby for me and I’m on the third stage of my first ever tumble. As soon as I finished the first stage, I knew I was hooked.
I’ve been dragging little rocks home for years, and out of the blue, my husband got me my first tumbler. I’ll be looking to you all for inspiration and information!!
