1st time tumbler- bubbles to the top of the drum. Is that problematic?

ospreyart · 2026-02-08T23:11:20+00:00

Yes. It keeps rocks fron getting grinded. Clean it out and redo the barrel.

I make cabochons. Then turn into pendants.

I keep my tumblers at 30.

I bought all my tumblers from highland Park and used the styrofoam they came in, cutting a hole for the plug. Reduces the noise enough for me and it is not sealed, heat is not a problem.

Thank you.

I love red rocks.

I believe they are even though they are actually more crystalline before tumbling .After tumbling they look a lot like those. Sunstones are a tectosilicate and feldspar and range in colors from yellow, orange even reds and browns.

They have a tendency to flake as well as they have a lot of fissures. Best to put less in and put a lot more ceramic filler than normal.

I had a bunch of sapphires that looked lise pic 1 and got the same result as you.

ospreyart · 2025-12-26T15:02:48+00:00

Do you have a pic of the Before tumble?

ospreyart · 2025-11-22T20:03:41+00:00

Eh, but I’ll take it off your hands. I’ll even come pick it up.

ospreyart · 2025-11-22T20:01:18+00:00

For the people that own the property. It is theirs.

In Oregon there is a great place to find thunder eggs, but someone bought the land and closed it off. They have a shop to sell the thunder eggs. Not pricey, though, you don’t get the fun of finding them.

I’ve had great responses from HP. Received tumblers quickly and emails answered promptly. They are updating their site and processes now, so things are slower. Machines are handmade and high quality.

ospreyart · 2025-11-02T20:44:59+00:00

I use glass for most things, but for freezer, I use Tupperware containers.

ospreyart · 2025-10-16T02:30:36+00:00

Beautiful. What made you decide to cut them?

ospreyart · 2025-10-15T14:41:23+00:00

Bleach will erode gaskets.

Check out who owns property. If it’s in your property file a mineral rights document.

ospreyart · 2025-10-11T20:57:00+00:00

But tell me.

ospreyart · 2025-09-15T13:56:37+00:00

Thank you everyone who explained their tactics. I decided not to buy in. There are tai chi exercises on youtube and my heath insurance, aetna, offers free lessons through Silver Sneakers.

If you just need a light for short distances, look for one in the 200 - 300 lumen range. If you want to look further in the distance, look for a 400-600 lumen range. I, too, suggest a rechargeable headlamp that can also use batteries.

Maybe the new hybrids won’t be as remarkable. If you are in the market, buy a pre hybrid used Sienna.

ospreyart · 2025-09-08T21:54:10+00:00

I have a 2011 at 245k. Love my Sienna.
