Mark II Rock Tumbler _ Water Cooler Jug _ Part 2

Not a bad idea overall,but you have your fan-belt installed wrong side out.Also you could eliminate two of the pillow blocks and use two industrial casters installed upside down,thus needing only one "axle".

LOL. "Too fast for this country boy." Oh my gosh, this video is so dang funny! This guy needs his own show on the DIY network! Re: the tumbler: wow, this is quite a step up from the Mark I. You've gotten ambitious since the coffee can prototype! The water cooler jug is a stroke of genius. What are you going to do with all those rocks? I don't think it's about the rocks anymore. It's about the machine.

you could add a large pulley at your pillow block so your motor can run closer to it's normal speed while slowing the barrel down.

man i wanted to see the rocks afterwards :( :(

Still too fast.....Lots of variables but 50 rpm barrel speed is a good number to start with.

Show us what the stones look like now.....

he he you like to say things twice

[knnk417]

Great suggestion, Ranger Jack!

Just make sure there's adequate airflow to keep ya motor cool.
