Hi Everyone, I have been using a single 3# and a double 3#er, both thumler's. Yesterday I ordered Thumler's AR6 (a 9#er) and some rough from The Rock Shed. With this in mind.... My name is Randy and I am addicted to rocks and rock tumbling. I am powerless against my addiction. Although my addiction is recent, I am unable to resist the allure. My only solution seems to be to feed my addiction with nearly complete abandon. I am weak. Thanks you for your attention fellow rock addicts. I hope your all happy now! LOL. Randy

I know how you feel, at first I had just a few rocks and a small tumbler, now I've bought a new one with an extra barrel and enough rocks to last me around a year...

I know how you feel. I also started out very very small and I am getting more all the time.
Welcome

Thanks, randy. I'm with you, bro! I went from a single 3# Lortone to 4 tumblers, 7 barrels, 27# capacity in less than a year! And now I'm trolling eBay all the time for rough. So far gone! It's comfortable to be among fellow travelers...

Hi my name's Tony and I am addicted. I hear that it gets worse before it gets better. My wife thinks I am crazy, but she tolerates me. Could be worse, I could collect airplanes, or expensive cars or something along that line. I too started out with a single CE 3 pounder, now I have an almost fully equipped rock shop and have to keep goin out looking for more rocks. Finding your own is much more fun than trolling on ebay. Isn't it that the weak will inherit the earth? Well the earth is full of rocks!!!!!!!!
Ok enough ranting and raving for now, back to the rocks at hand...................Tony

I forgot to mention the Work Force Tile saw (Home Depot for $89.00) that I bought to cut rock with. I don't really have that much rock that I need to cut. I used it today anyway. I was weak.
