Michigan Rocks is about rock hunting, rock polishing, and lapidary arts. Most of my rock hunts are on beautiful Great Lakes beaches. The rocks I tumble and work with are not all from Michigan, but most of the outdoor videos are.
Hi, I'm Rob. I have been learning about rocks and how to polish them for over ten years. I have several tutorials on how to use a rock tumbler. I also have a series called "Rocks in a Box" where I show rocks that I have tumbled in the past. Besides tumbling, I slab rocks, make jewelry and do other creative projects. I'll do my best to teach you what I know.
You can expect more outdoor videos during the spring, summer, and fall and more indoor lapidary videos during the long Michigan winters. I post every Friday and some Tuesdays.
I am not a geologist, so I'll identify rocks I recognize and admit when I don't know what something is. There is a lot I don't know, so I hope to learn some from my viewers. I think we have a pretty good community growing here.
