We did a lot of collecting last fall so we would have enough material to get us throught he winter.

With all the repairs to the C/E tumbler. We did not get through as much stuff as I wanted to.

For some reason, we do not use the vib tumbler much. So we just had 2 tumblers going instead of 4 for most of the winter.

Quess I'll have to sweet talk the wife & see if I can get a couple more for next winter. I stead of getting a new tumbler this spring, I purchased A LOT of grit.

Now I need something to put it in. LOL
