Howdy folks, Well, just emptied my first load from my new UV-10. Man that load is huge! That dang tumbler was barely full enough yet it took every prepolished stone I had accumulated for more than a month. Wow! Thanks to all of you who recommended this tumbler! Very cool machine.
I had to redo my 33B loads to change them all over to prepolish so I can start refilling that huge dadgum tub. It seems to have done a real fine job but I ran the rocks twice as long as suggested ( 7 days in Rockshed AO). I'd give this rig very high marks as it's appears sturdy and is moderately quiet but boy it's gonna be hard to keep it fed. I can't even imagine how hard it would be to feed a UV-18! Now I have this dream of two more UV-10's, one for fine grind and one for prepolish. I'm just never satisfied *L*.I'll take a pick of the monster batch when I get time tomorrow....Mel
