I have sort of inherited an old tumbler and the base is a gear driven motor. It is extremely noisy and I would like to get a base to use the barrel on. The barrel as you will see looks just like my 15 lb Thumler but maybe a 6 lb'er. The lid fits on the 15 lb Thumler's. Here is a picture of the entire unit. Please PM me if you have a base you feel this would fit on with how much you'd want for it. Thanks, Tanya

Hey Tanya, is that a Loretone tumbler ? If so, what are the measurements of the opening for the drum ? I have an old Loretone that I don't use anymore.

Don, It is a Montgomery Ward, Powr Kraft, Gemstone Tumbler. The opening for the barrel is 6" X 9". John thought a Lortone or Scott Murray might do the trick. If you have one that would be great! Just let me know what you want for it. Thanks, Tanya

I'll dig it out later and measure the opening. Did you see my post in the tumbling section ? I gave away the parts you need a couple months back. Montgomery Ward, Sears and I suspect a couple of other dept. store chains all sold the same tumblers with their own color and name on them.

Yes, I saw that. It would seem that those gear driven tumblers would be quite noisy. The barrel is just like the Thumler's Model B only about half the height. The lids are interchangeable. I can always use the lid in the future if I can't find a base, but I'd really like to have that 6 lb'er working. Thanks for your help Don. Let me know if you find it and it is big enough. Tanya

Okay, Don does not have one that will fit. Anyone else, please.

I have one that will work or I have a large base that you can put multiple barrels on. Tony

Tony, I sent you a PM. Could you please post a picture? I'm curious.
