Being at work, I can't call upon YouTube. Any information about attaching findings to tumbled stones would be much appreciated.
Drilling, gluing and types of findings particularly.
Thanks, Luminin

for drilling this might help forum.rocktumblinghobby.com/thread/35856/drill-pendantI try to stay away from glue on bail pendants but they do make good $10 items for folks that don't want to spend enough to get a wire wrap. When I do glue them on I use 2-part epoxy. Glue on bails look like this. The fancy pattern on flat portion helps the glue adhere. I have had good luck with this epoxy from Home Depot Chuck

Excellent! That's exactly the info I was looking for. Thanks, Drummond Island Rocks! I'm still adjusting to navigating here. It's been a few years since I've dove head first into a forum!

For tumbled stones bell caps can be glued on. They have easily bendable prongs to match contours. They work best on corners or points of the rocks. My kids used to make tumbled stone key chains with these. Chuck
