Hey Andrea, good to hear from you! Yes, frosted glass is just about as pretty as the shiny stuff! The holidays were great, and I hope they also were for you! I got a nasty cold that wiped me out for almost a month, but it wasn't COVID. The funny thing is, I hadn't been sick in MANY years before that. I hope you're doing well! ROCK ON! 😁👍🏻🪨⛏️
Oh no, sorry to hear that! Yes, I think that's what I had. My mom was visiting and also had the nasty crud for weeks. Here's to better health and more rock adventures! Thank you so much for watching as I appreciate you, my friend! 🤗 Have a great rest of your day!! 😁👍🏻
Hey there! I recall I didn't use it in this experiment as I wanted to see how the glass would look with just sand in one barrel and 60/90 grit in the other. As you saw, at least one marble had a decent chip in it, exposing the inner plastic marble swirl pattern. I am currently running my tumblers with rocks and do have ceramic media in them as I do find the value in using it as a cushion. Especially for items that bruise easily, like glass. I hope that helps explain. TUMBLE ON!! 😁👍🏻🪨⛏️ - Laura
Michigan rocks did an experiment like that, he was able to get a bit of that effect by adding in gravel and using a large (12 lb) barrel to really beat the glass up.

I wasn't expecting the sand to work nearly that well. I'm impressed, I though it would have barely any effect at all.
Howdy! 👋🏻 Yes, I was surprised how effective sand is! Mother Nature knows her stuff. This was a fun experiment! 😁👍🏻🪨💦
I love the look of frosted glass. Hope you had wonderful holidays. It's great to see you back. Rock/glass on.🤪😏😁

@@CacklingChick we also got sick. The Flu, but we are all on the mend now thank goodness. So happy to see you posting videos again. Rock on Friend.

Don't lose your marbles 1:13 😂 🤣 it was good to see the difference thanks for sharing your experiment with us
HA!!! I didn't even think of that! Yes, I often lose my marbles. 🤣 Thanks for watching, Courtney! GLASS ON!! 😁👍🏻
Oh my gosh I love this! I literally am currently doing the exact same experiment! 🙈
Mine should be done in a few weeks! I did tumbled to beach glass and am trying to go back again to shiny marbles!
That's awesome!! Can't wait to see how yours turn out, Ariel!! 😃👍🏻🔵🌊
Oh, fun! I thought about doing that as well, but then I got sick and just did the comparison. Can't wait to see your results! EEEEE!!! GLASS ON!! 🤣👍🏻
Please tell me why you don’t use the ceramic? From what I read that is very important to keep the glass from breaking?

How would you get the glass to have more pits and less of a uniform smoothness? Maybe put a big rock in the barrel to beat up the glass?
I agree! Through in some rough rocks! That's a great idea!

Yes, Rob is awesome!! I love his videos! I wish I had a 12 lb. barrel to try that!! TUMBLE ON!! 😁👍🏻🪨💦
