Great job. Love the big tumbles and you did that one proud!
Enjoyed your video envious of how clean your shop is
I need to get one of those grinders. That has to cut weeks off the tumble.

I might suggest putting a load of rocks & water in each barrel and run 'em to check for leaks and make sure everything is in working order before buying a ton of grit.
Kingsley North has been my go to grit in bulk, but they don't seem any GOOD sales on right now. Somewhere you can pick up & save shipping sounds advantageous.
I don't add the weight of the barrel to my calculations, but I've never had a barrel that weighed 27 pounds (times 2) running on one tumbler.
Welcome to the forum. Awesome first post! I'm sure others that use those big honkin' barrels will chime in.
PS ... that's one nice looking tumbler!!

Your tiger eye with that layer of hematite and red jasper in it has tiger iron written all over it.

Alibates! wow there is a material ya don't see very often! You did a nice job on 'em. More pics of the 6 medium sized tumbles along the bottom of that 2nd photo wouldn't be a bad thing.

Congratulations!
Is the person under the porch below the bay window part of the deal?
Fire places in case the power goes out in the winter?
Good rocks in the area?

I don't come in here often, but the title made me look.
Your wraps are super nice, as always, but -
have you considered a different background?
The stark white is hard on my eyes and makes seeing the wire detail difficult.
