We found another place to collect and hit the jack pot on pet wood today. The sep nods aren't anything of museum quality but very cool just the same and amazing to find. I did find the smallest septarian nodule ever today, about the size of an egg, which is a first for me.
This is the third place we've found pet wood around the property so I'm really pumped about new hunting areas. Petrified wood is one of my favorites and it's a beautiful transformation. I'm worn out right now but I'll get it all washed up tomorrow and post pics. Some of the pet wood is gorgeous! I should have taken a better pack, more food and some dang coffee. -------------------- Level 2 member -12/25/16

JB, i bought some sand paper to play with the pet wood we found with you back in july. Its a bit more hand work than dropping some rock in a tumbler, but you can save the solar power. Im not very good, but shaping a bit with rough paper then getting down to 400+ for a smoother finish has turned out decent products for me just starting out.
