Some yrs ago I bought the Model B Thumbler Tumbler all the way from Ontario, not realizing I could have gone across the border into Washinton State & bought the same.
The main frame had been buckled & Thumbler Tumbler responded immediately with a new frame, shafts & all. They are proud of their work. Probably an ideal rock tumber for the size of the motor is quite large & with the perfect rubber liner it is very quite.
Still with crushed walnut & resin the results were poor with 6 hrs of tumbling & not much difference with 14 hrs.
Some yrs later I bought the Lyman Turbo & with the same USED media 1.5 hrs later on I have shining brass.
Still many of the shake tumbers do a lovely job & that is why I went for a Lyman. Oh yes this is two yrs after the new Lyman, same OLD media & same shinning 38spl, 9X19 & 45ACP brass.
