Who IS this Rock Shed and why do they keep sending me all this stuff?
25 pounds of this colored sand stuff, 5 pounds of that, grey sand, brown sand, white sand...
I live in FLORIDA for God's sake, I'm surrounded by sand!!
They send black barrels that smell funny so I can't even drink a beer outta 'em and the frisbee things fly about as well as a rock!
Who ARE these crazy people??
BTW, thanks for the tootsie rolls! ;D
Today's tumbler tip is: Q-tips
Oh... you want the reason?
Use Q-tips to clean the drive belt on your tumbler*. You and do this while the motor is running without needing to be a rocket scientist OR a brain surgeon! It's an easy way to remove any built up oil residue from the bushings which can cause the belt to slip.
You can even clean the groove in the drive pulley with the Q-tip while the tumbler is running.
*May not work on a Lortone, I don't have one to check. Heck, it may not even be an issue on a Lortone like it is on a Thumlers.
What's YOUR tumbling tip of the day?
"Get a life" is NOT an option!
Proper wording of "You have too much free time" is.![]()
