Looking forward to learning a lot here. My 7 year old saw a rock tumbler at the store and wanted to use his birthday money to buy one. We decided to do a little research first, watched a bunch of Michigan Rocks videos, and fell down a rabbit hole! Now it’s turned into my birthday present as well. We have a QT-66 on the way and a bunch of cool rocks from the rock shed. Can’t wait to get started!

Very cool. Looking forward to seeing what you tumble. I bet your kid will remember this with fondness when he’s older.

gabe76 Welcome from Idaho. Tumbling with kids is fun. It teaches both of you patience. One of my daughters liked helping me with cleanouts. It was always good bonding time.

Welcome from NW Florida Just think of all the great adventures you can have together. Best part is there are lots of tumblers on here (not me) that know what they are doing. So don't be shy to ask questions. Happy Birthday to both of you. Patty
