Hi all
Myself and 14yr old daughter are going to start rock tumbling as a hobby. Something we are both interested in and can enjoy together.
Can anyone recommend a good starter tumbler and accessories to get us started? We live in the UK.
Thanks L

I am not familiar with the tumblers available in the UK. There are a lot of low quality rock tumblers on the market in the United States...I don't know if the same holds true for the UK. The only advice I could give you would be based on models found in the USA and if you were interested you would need to use a power adapter/converter to run them. If that was the case: A Lortone 33B would be a good starter model (2) 3lb. barrels and high reliability/durability. I have been running two of them for a little over 3 years and aside from tightening/replacing the belts I have only had to replace the bushings on one of them so far.
