Vibratory Tumbler

Okay, after tumbling a couple batches of bolts and nuts, I have decided that this vibratory tumbler is just not for prepping bolts and nuts for plating or coating. I called Eastwood and they agreed to allow me to return it (store credit). They even credited my shipping (one way).

So, Eastwood is quite a customer satisfaction oriented operation. I will buy lots more mumbo jumbo from them.

Next I am debating on a fairly large rock tumbler. Also, I am buying a blast cabinet from HF since there is obviously no substitute for sand blasting and my big blaster is just too powerful, noisy, cumbersome and burns thru too much sand to do little nuts and bolts.
