Tundras live: A Bunch of Idiots And A Bunch of BS- Resume discussion group

Can confirm.

 

Sorry to hear that. Prayers being sent to you and the family.

My cousin has battled seizures most of his life. It amazes me how little the medical community knows about them.

 

Two 50lb boxes delivered by Fed-Ex. Undamaged and two days ahead of schedule.

Just cuz I know we have a couple brown-pants peeps here

 

I usually have the opposite experience with the “Ex” - I can see it arrive at the local hub three days early and then just sit there until the scheduled delivery date.

 

Damn. I thought you were our local rock hound.

 

@TRDFerguson and @1794TX were talking about them earlier in the year in the Clubhouse...

 

Yuhp... that was pretty much your response during the conversation

 

@GODZILLA
I think I just linked a rock tumbler. Was an amateur's amateur rock hound when I was a kid, but not so much now. Unless you get better advice, just don't go cheap and send several grit-grades of medium with the tumbler. Maybe a book on different minerals and rocks. Good lessons in patience and geology to be had with the hobby.

 

Sorry to hear. Good luck getting everyone upright and healthy.

 

Ah you quoted the wrong post lol. Found the relevant posts and now I vaguely remember the convo a while back… but my reply remains the same

 

Ah, so you were the one! I knew it was one of the old grumpy guys in here. I just picked the wrong one, eh @Azblue ?

 

Thank you for the info, but I need context. What is considered cheap, and what is considered decent? I have no frame of reference. I just saw some of them on scamazon and thought they might enjoy it.

 

For @T-Rex266 's pun addiction.

 

Rock Tumblers & Supplies - The Rock Shed

Cheap and fancy kind of go together on these, I think. So something that just plugs in and turns on with a long lasting motor, instead of something with whizbangs and buttons like you'd get on Scamazon.

If the kids in question already collect rocks, and if you know they have a little patience (or if their parents want to grow their patience), you're probably gold getting a rock tumbler. But if they act like little maniacs on crack, and that's just going to be that, they might not understand the gift. They're going to have to clean the rocks, tumble the rocks, clean the rocks, tumble the rocks, clean the rocks, tumble the rocks... to get great results.

 

I'd definitely consult with my brother, or more likely his wife, first. I don't want to give them something that just sits and collects dust. Damn. Some of those prices are nuts.

 

Tomato tomato.

 

@LarryDangerfield how's the 4Runner? What do you think you'll replace it with next year?

 

That's good, man. I'm happy for you. Always nice to get the right rig for where you are in life.

 

So freakin' cute.

 

I'm sorry to hear about your daughters difficulties. Hopefully they can get her meds right sized so this doesn't happen as often.

I used a Thumler's Tumbler for years cleaning up spent brass. Was a great tumbler but probably too big for your average sized rock that rockhounds polish.

 

I must of missed your post @j-utah
Best of luck to you guys, hope you all turn the corner soon.
