Yes it is some of the stone that Tower sent to me. This stone is great and it works in a much more predictable way than my Burlington that I have here at the house. His rock has no frost cracks in it. I can calm the stone down quicker. This means I can get on with the business of making point sooner. I am interested to know how working this Texas rock is going to improve how I work the Burlington rock. I have learned a lot about thinning in the past couple of weeks.
