What are the best rocks to use for your tumbler? Can you use rocks you find outside? In this video I show you what to look for when searching for rocks for your tumbler! There are many places to look including landscaping rock and gravel roads! You would be surprised by the amount of beautiful rocks you can find in these places! I also share what qualities you should look for when selecting rocks for your tumbler.

Rock qualities you want to avoid include, rocks with deep or large holes, porous surfaces, fossils, and rocks that can be easily scratched with your fingernail or knife.

Rock qualities you want to look for include, rocks of similar hardness, microcrystalline quarts varieties (agate, jasper, chert, chalcedony), rocks with bright colors, and unique qualities.
