Hey hey rock tumbling folks! For Christmas this year I'd like to ask for a rock tumbler. My grandpa tumbled Columbia river rocks all the time I was growing up, it was so fun! I inherited his tumbler but uh, I would not exactly trust the wiring. I'd like a new one.
If you have one and have thoughts on brands, quality, noise of machine, durability of machine, those sorts of things, I'd love to learn more.

After some blustery winds and big waves on #lakesuperior today, planning on some #rockhounding this weekend. More for the #rocktumbler #rocks #lapidary
Before my tumbler died about 6 months ago, I used to tumble batches of rocks on the regular. My tumbler died in the middle of a batch of stage three leopard jasper, just needs a good stage four polishing and they'll be good to go! Idk if the husbeast will repair or replace my previously-owned machine. We shall see. #rocktumbling #rocks #rockpolishing #rocktumbler

#RockTumbler Update: On stage 2. This is much quieter, can barely hear it at all… because the plastic pellets dampen the noise. Can’t use them in stage 1. Just 2, 3, & 4. Everyone is getting a pretty rock for Christmas.

I’m enjoying my new rock tumbler. All stones are from local beaches, collected by my husband.
I’ve got a load of too-fresh sea glass in the tumbler now.

@silviar Oh gosh, I have wanted a #RockTumbler forever! I always come home with rocks (and sticks, bones, pine cones, shells, etc) in my pockets wherever we go ...I need a tumbler!!
Brief whine - I really want to go outside and work with my rock tumblers to get ready for the next stage, but I also don't feel like going out and getting wet in these temperatures.

#Today is the first day in 3 weeks my #rocktumbler isn’t going. This batch needs some friends before moving into the last grit stage. Quite the 🌈 for an “odds & ends” round!
