    Pretty batch…I would call my tumbling somewhere in between yours and Kendra’s. Leaning more to you. West Texas rocks are crazy cool!

    A beautiful batch of tumbles! I need to get my tumbler back up and running. I now have a backlog of great rocks that need a shine.

    The selection and polish of the windows and the measured treatment of the exteriors, as well as the transitions and balance between the two, made for extraordinary individual pieces of art. Some of those gorgeous agates appeared clad in worn golden armor, and the frosted black bots with the gem polished caps are extraordinary artistry. They deserve a stand to be admired from all sides. Amazing, you two.

    It is so nice to hear you say tumbling rocks Kendra's way "is not bad". LOL Come to our side! 😉 Another great batch Scott, I look forward to these videos and seeing the results. So many stunners in here, I loved them all, but my particular favorites were 5:30, 6:15, 7:00, 8:00, 11:45, 16:20, 19:25 and 20:50.

    Wow!! I am so impressed with the quality of rocks you have access to(maybe jealous actually). I’m really glad you do these videos showing the tumbles results. I’m going to do a cross Canada trip just for rocks!!(my husband thinks it’s for visiting/entertainment/sightseeing). I just really want all the ROCKS!!!! 😊✌🏼

    Kendra's stones are wonderful. 💓Some of them are especially beautifully detailed. By the way, tumbling is a good idea, but I don't have much patience for that. Nice teamwork.💓

    • @spwinaustin

      I appreciate your kind words and feedback!😁 It definitely takes patience. These videos usually take at least 2 months to make. Thanks god watching!

    could you add what you use to cut the rocks? do you have a machine or did you use a diamond blade rotary tool? did all of your polishing happen inside a barrel

    • @spwinaustin

      Hi, thanks for watching! We use a 10” lapidary saw from Barranca Diamond. I used a rotary tumbler for the shaping and a vibratory tumbler for the polishing.
