cngodles Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 I’ve been collecting for a year now. I started to make a limestone sink, because I love the limestone that I find marine fossils in locally. Well part of the process was polishing the bowl I cut out, and wow, polished black limestone is a thing of beauty. It even has some fossils in it. I’ll post the sink one day. Naturally, I wanted to try polishing a fossil focus piece. I found this nice coral, likely Rugosa. I polished it to 3,000 grit with a Dewalt polisher and a set of stone polish pads. It was a quick experiment but I liked how it turned out. Fossils of Parks Township - Research | Catalog | How-to Make High-Contrast Photos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobby Rico Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 Cool looking piece. I also enjoy rock polishing but manly coral slices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
