Jacks Fork River ROCKS! - Latest Polished Stone (1 of 2)
<center> <h3>About a month ago, I wrote about my <a href="https://steemit.com/handmade/@hethur240/what-i-made-this-week-also-a-mechanical-death">rock tumbler dying</a>.  Thankfully it just needed lubricated really badly.  @jasonrussell had it <a href="https://steemit.com/homesteadersonline/@hethur240/goings-on-at-our-homestead-this-week-bracelets-chickens-and-resurrections">back to running</a> in no time.  

Since then the tumbler has been running nonstop.  I finished the stones that were already in progress and immediately started a new batch.  

Because polishing stones takes a month's worth of 24/7 tumbling, I often forget what they looked like at the beginning.  So now I take photos of certain ones at the beginning and after each cycle.  Here are some of the ones that just finished:

*#3 - This one really changed colors while tumbling.  Only the orange stripes polished to a shine.*
