Polishing a Big Chunk of Minnesota Jasper

Thomas, a Minnesota Rockhound and YouTuber sent me a big piece of jasper to polish.

The cup wheel is 50/60 grit. I followed this up with a 16 grit silicon carbide wheel. Next I moved to a Makita electronic stone polisher. This has a soft backer, so the pads can flex to the shape of the rock. The grits are as follows: 30 grit 50 grit 100 grit 200 grit 400 grit 800 grit 1500 grit 3000 grit 6000 grit 8000 grit – MERCH – Buy Michigan Rocks shirts and other merchandise here. https://michigan-rocks.myspreadshop.com – HIGHLAND PARK LAPIDARY – Highland Park makes some high quality tools at reasonable prices.
