I Built and Tested a Vibratory Rock Tumbler

Hello Friends! Join me on my efforts to build and test a vibratory rock tumbler. The last year I've used a Raytech TV-10 which is a nice little unit. I wanted a vibratory tumbler which was much larger in size, and could polish larger stones. Thus- I ended up with a design that I named "Big Blue". This is Big Blue's maiden polishing voyage where approx 20lbs of material was in the polishing' bowl. I have some bonus footage at the end where I show the preliminary prototypes that show my idea-journey leading up to the final design. Let me know what you think! I'll be using Big Blue in the very near future on some Yellowstone Agates and some Picture Jasper that I have Stay tuned for those results! Please consider subscribing. Join me at Rock & Lap to learn rock polishing, be creative, make things, etc. The "Lap." in the channel name is short for Lapidary! This channel is a wonderful place to share hobbies and learn from each other. I'll be sharing things regarding the outdoors, rock hounding, fossils, and lapidary. https://www.youtube.com/@RockandLap/v...
