Everything you need to start tumbling - a high quality dual-barrel rock tumbler from Beach Lapidary and one of our beginner grit packs containing three tubs of silicon carbide grit and one of polish powder.
Our dual barrel Beach rock tumbling machine is one of our most popular choices, offering both an accessible platform for beginners while serving as an ideal upgrade for those moving from a single barrel tumbler. This machine comes with two 1.5lb plastic barrels, allowing you to experiment with multiple projects simultaneously or tackle larger batches with ease.
Our beginner grit pack is everything you need for several tumble loads. This is a low cost option to get started and comes in resealable tubs. This pack contains one tub each of – F80 Course Grit [200g], F220 Medium Grit [200g], F400 Fine Grit [200g] and Pumice Polish Powder [100g].
How much energy does it use?
How much energy does it use?
Our 2lb and 3lb machines use very efficient, 20W motors. If left running over the course of a month, expect to use somewhere between 14-15 kWh of electricity, this would probably cost £3-£4 a month.
Is it okay to stop the tumbler for a few hours or overnight?
Is it okay to stop the tumbler for a few hours or overnight?
Yes, it is fine to stop the tumbler for brief periods (a few hours) to inspect the rocks, change the grit, or take a break.
However, do not leave the rocks sitting in the slurry for more than 12-24 hours without turning, especially in the final stages. The slurry can start to dry and harden, cementing the grit to the rocks or the barrel walls, making cleanup difficult and potentially leading to contamination.
