[QUOTE="peterau, post: 109418, member: 1781"] Hi All, I have bought a tumbler and I am interested in trying to tumble some stones. I am completely new to this, so have a lot of unknowns. I have a lot of prehnite I collected when working at kalkaringi, I would like to tumble this. The prehnite is in various sizes and is sandwiched between a grey host rock. Do I have to remove this host rock before I tumble or will the tumbling remove the host rock. If I have to remove the host rock before tumbling, how do I do it. Do I cut the prehnite into tumbling sizes or just crack it up Any help appreciated. Cheers peterau [/QUOTE]
