None, they went out in the odd culling that happened from time to time.  Rock polishing was not for either one of us.  There are enough professionals out there to do it for us!   8)

  Maybe I should become a professional rock polisher.  How's the pay?  :laugh:

My aunt had one. Loved how pretty pebbles came out of that thing after a long tumble.
