Today I am going to tell you
about how I polished my rocks. I do not have any photos in the process of doing
it but I think these photos are very interesting I hope you will like them. It
took a whole month to do this process and we had to put four different kinds of
grit in to clean them. But when they came out all finished they where smooth
and shiny.
Polishing the rocks is hard
on them. When the rocks came out of the rock polisher there were quite a few
pieces that had broken off the rocks. One of the rocks went into the rock
tumbler about the size of a penny and came out smaller than a dime.
Each time we rinsed the
tumbler out to put new grit in. The water was gross with the dirt off the
rocks. And each time we changed out the grit, the lid was a mess. During the
process the lid came off and rocks fell out all over the ground. But all- in-
all it is worth it, the rocks came out shinny and smooth after running 24-hours
a day and 7-days a week for a month.
These are not the rocks I
polished but they are some rocks that are not polished so I hope they give you
an idea what they looked like before polishing.
