Can I take raw garnets and tumble them in a rock tumbler? I want to turn it into Jewelry!!?
I have raw garnets that look like this:

Some are the size of peas, and some are the size of half-dollars. Will putting them in a rock tumbler polish the rough parts away and leave solid garnets?
I've never done this before and I don't want to buy a rock tumbler if it isn't going to polish it down all the way to a smooth gem.
Any tips? I want to take the polished stones and turn it into a jewelry set, like rings and earrings and necklaces, etc.
I'm not sure what you mean by "smooth." A rock tumbler will polish your stones but not get rid of the bumps and lumps on the surface. You need to have them cut to have them look like the ones you see in stores.
So in other words, your garnets will have the same basic shape but will be shiny.
So, no, a rock tumbler is not what you are looking for.
