I assume this is a 3 pound tumbler. It's an oldie. You can go through the motors in the included link, shaft length will narrow your choices quickly. The specifications are pretty thorough. I would go with an RPM of no lower than 3000. www.zoro.com/search?q=c%20frame%20motors

usually hard to burn up the coil on those motors. Does the shaft still turn by hand easily? if not take it apart and clean it - though it does looks like a loose wire loop in some of the pictures? You could test the coil for continuity/resistance as well. good luck

Are you in Michigan or across the border? My favorite spot for a day trip is Port Huron. Lakeport area.

It was left outside for a long time, it looks like. I was shocked it came on in the first place, but it didn't last long.

I have only been in this hobby for just over a year and have not gone to Lakeport State Park yet, I have beaches closer that I go to. Those being the Fort Gratiot County Park and the Lighthouse Beach. I'd like to see that tumbler finished.
