How can I polish & carved rock I found?

I found a heart-shaped stone in the river while kayaking through the summer and I want it polished and engraved. It is about 3 Inches from top to bottom and just under 1 / 2 cm thick. It's like a heart-shaped. Will be part present. I was mainly thinking about polishing parts. Also, what are the price ranges I watch? Where I go it? Thanks in advance!

Some stones have never been polished to glossy sheen, depending on the density and mineral content. Your best chance that with some igneous and metamorphic rocks or crystals. Softer sedimentary rocks are the best candidates for polishing. If your rock type is suitable for polishing the rock using glass is the easiest way. If your rock is not suitable for polishing, you can always paint to give a similar feel and appearance. Stone carving can be done with a tool Dremel a special hardened bit. You probably do not want to buy a rock tumbler for making just one stone, so they could try to find fans willing to do you a favor. Rock collecting and tumbling is fun hobby, especially if you have children, so if you have interested have a glass you can find a hobby version starts at $ 50 - $ 75 range. You will need additional supplies (different abrasive grits), which can become an extra $ 10 or so to load a piece of rock. By the way, if you put your heart-shaped rock in the jar on its own, not with the collection of other rocks. Usually, when you use a glass polish for attempting to meet rocks of similar type and hardness. If one is softer in the mixture can get chipped and badly damaged the other heavier stones. Good luck!
