I have been collecting rocks for over 40 years. I am recently retired and ordered my first lot O vibration tumbler.
I live in Florida, so I travel to find my rocks🥰 I have 2 grandsons that help me rock hunt.. I am here to learn and get better tumbling. Thank you for the invite

Welcome from the Destin area! I understand the traveling part of rockhounding for those of us in The Sunshine State. Please feel free to ask any questions you may have and many here will help. There are also threads that will be plenty of help.

Welcome to the forum. Not meaning to rain on your Lot-O purchase at all (I, as well as many others here have one), just consider that it's not the best tool for handling rough rock in the first stage. For that, get a rotary unless you plan on tumbling absolutely smooth beach rocks and don't care about removing all imperfections. If you hadn't considered that, please head to the tumbling forum to express your needs. You'll get plenty of help and advice about which rotary to get for the coarse stage - of course, based on needs and budget. If you already know this, simply disregard my message. Welcome nonetheless.

Good to see another Floridian join in. We are pretty outnumbered here.
