With so much effort to get some stones, I wish you from deep in my heart happy slinging and that the stones will last long!

Sounds good.. I just buy river rock from Chandler Rock.
I am no adict.
I just climb up on top of the rock pile and hand pick rocks.
THen I put them in my trunk and pull onto the scale.
They weigh, I pay. No plane required.
ooppsss mayber I am an addict..

That reminds me of the time I smuggled a large piece of dinosaur bone from a hadrosaur tibia back in my pants across the canadian border. I had to take it out when I boarded a plane in detroit, but I told the security guy it was a pieceof petrified wood, and he let me pass.
"Hey, is that a piece of Hadrosaurine tibia in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?"

Now to me....that's just plain exotic. I am salivating over the (totally unrealistic) prospect of a consistent way to produce football shaped obsidian glans.....
I have produced a sling pocket design that shows great promise, which completely avoids ammo contact with the release cord. In several tests thus far, it has failed every attempt to produce a 'miscast' and is an absolute joy to use.
I will get a series of pictures posted hopefully next weekend.
