Polishing stones without a tumbler

[llou96]

Hi like the question says... I have a Dremel, is it possible to use that? Thank you!

The answer in my opinion is no it is not practical

I've done a small amount of carving with a flexshaft - I wouldn't use a Dremel for that as it's done wet, so the flexshaft reduces the problems of water + electrics.
I suppose you could work through grits, but if you're looking to end up with something similar to tumble-polished stones it's going to be very time consuming. I'd also expect it to consume Dremels too.

Used stone tumblers are not that expensive and will solve your problem. Have a look on Ebay: https://www.ebay.co.uk/i/30341020860...SABEgLuIPD_BwE

did you mean the top of a stone that has been set into a piece of jewellery already? Or, did you mean loose stones?
