Current Project

My current project is a batch of mixed rocks I got from my parents for Christmas. I have no idea what most of them are. There were originally about 5 pounds so it has taken a long time in my little tumbler. It has been running 24/7 on the rough grind since January (I did say my tumbler was small). I'm finally getting close to being ready to move on to the next stage, hopefully in a couple more months. This project has depleated my supply of rough grit. Here's a couple of pictures of the rocks as I got them.

As far as what's what, about all I know is that the farthest rock on the left is amethyst. One of my and my wife's favorites. We really hope it turns out well. Anyone with any ideas as to what the other stuff is, please say so.

Make sure you click on the pictures to really see them.
