- How much rock does a 3 lb tumbler hold?
- A 3 lb drum takes roughly 3 lb of rock, grit and water combined, so the rock load is smaller. That suits one small batch at a time rather than large volumes.
- How long does a full polish take?
- Rotary tumbling runs through coarse, medium, fine and polish stages, each taking days. The 1-9 day timer lets you set each stage and leave it running.
- Is it quiet enough to run indoors?
- The sound-reducing PC cover lowers the noise, but a tumbler still makes a steady rumble. Many owners run it in a garage or basement.
- What speeds should I use?
- Use slower speeds for polishing stages and faster speeds for coarse grinding. The four settings let you match speed to grit.
- Is it good for a beginner?
- Yes. The timer and speed settings remove much of the guesswork, and the kit is aimed at beginners and hobbyists.
- Does it come with grit and rocks?
- The listed contents cover the machine, drum and cover. Check the box contents for grit and rough stones before you start.
