Rock Tumbling ?
« on: Sat, 22 September 2018, 08:09:47 »
Rocks, Minerals, Shiny pebbles..

Always felt people were crazy for collecting rocks,

But the Older Tp4 gets,  the more the idea has become appealing..

Gekha Thoughts ?

The colourful spiky ones look good especially if they're growing out of or inside a rock but I've never seen the attraction to smooth ones.  I've looked at the big skulls on skullis occasionally for years but never actually bought anything.

Boulder Opals are beautiful; thought about maybe getting one just for the hell of it. Don't think I can sustain another collection hobby though.

When the kids were little we got a small cheap-o tumbler and it was pretty worthless. I guess you get what you pay for.

Tumbled rocks can be very cool.

“These economic royalists complain that we seek to overthrow the institutions of America. What they really complain of is that we seek to take away their power."
He paused for a moment, then thundered, “Our allegiance to American institutions requires the overthrow of this kind of power!”
“In vain,” Roosevelt said, “they seek to hide behind the Flag and the Constitution. In their blindness they forget what the Flag and the Constitution stand for. Now, as always, they stand for democracy, not tyranny; for freedom, not subjection; and against a dictatorship by mob rule and the over-privileged alike.”
- Franklin Roosevelt 1933
