    Default Tumbler

    just got to have one, know what I mean? Trouble is with having bought my torch I need something that isn't to expensive and I have no idea what size would be right... suggestions?

    Hi Lynnm,

    There's quite a few bits of info on tumbers on here, but here's one link I've found that might be useful.

    good luck

    thanks... I really want one, was hoping hubby would make me one as he is real good with 'stuff' but finding out what he needs to build one (and can I wait for him to get around to it!) is difficult lol

    Someone here built one themselves (was it Dano?). I seem to recall that they said by the time they'd finished, they weren't sure it was worth the saving. But I may be remembering that wrong.

    There was a thread on here a couple of weeks ago about tumblers. Quite a few of us bought one of the National Geographic rock tumblers from Argos which were on offer for around £25 at the time. Think they're back up to full price (mine was when it was bought for me for Xmas) but I think it's only about £35/36.

    I got my National Geographic Rock tumbler in the post today Cant wait to try it out.

    I bought it from Amazon in the end as Argos had sold out by the time I went to buy it - I think everyone from the forum had beaten me to the :P

    I akso think one of you beat me to the one I was bidding for on ebay!
