I got a tumbler and two barrels driving me crazy!
They are waiting for me in Arizona to pick them up. Theyre at my mom's just sitting there, where I am not! Sitting there! And I'm here! The anticipation is driving me nuts. I have to wait until I visit her to pick them up.
I have tumblers waiting to meet them. Every time I go in the garage they rumble at me, saying, "when are you going to go pick up our new friends?" I calmly tell them that I'll be visiting sometime this year and that we all must be patient. Darnit, I can't take it.
OK, I'm done venting. Steve

Vent away it would be driving me nuts as well especially if it is a larger tumbler and barells. I do not really want to know but what the heck. What size?

Stonewizard, the tumbler is a 12 pounder and the barrels are a 15 pounder and a half sized 7 pounder. They will both go well with my existing 15 pound tumbler as soon as I extend the shafts on it! Can you understand my agony? Steve

Rocklicker now you have done it and they are not even waiting for me. Damn I want another 12# but do not have the cash. Dave

Have your Mother put them in a box and buy them a bus ticket ;D (maybe get your Mom one too).

Venting is good. Just make sure the other tumblers gently welcome the noo-bee and that there is no jealousy over is your #1. Treat them all the same and be good to them.

I feel your pain rocklicker. My tumbler is driving ME nuts... right now it's sitting in a storage unit some 200 feet away from me. I just need a place to put it.

Are these the tumblers you purchased from Pat? If they are, the wait will be worth it, but I can feel your frustration. I'm going to be taking a peek at some of this rough to see if he has anything good to tumble. He only uses the best equipment, so you got yourself a deal. Before you know it you'll be tumbling away...Hang in there, the wait is going to pay off!
