DURABLE QUALITY - This high-quality tumbler has a powerful motor that will last for years. Noise reducing leak-proof rubber barrel with stainless steel lid. It is also recommended that you use a face mask or dust mask to protect your lungs from any particles in the air created by grinding and polishing stones. Don’t forget to protect your hands with gloves, too!

Make sure everything is put away properly so that you don’t lose any pieces and can use them again next time. It’s also a good idea to wipe down the work surface and any other tools you used with a clean cloth to remove any dust or debris. Multiple Speeds– There are 5 speeds you can use, allowing for even more flexibility in the process. Difficult to Open –I found this barrel difficult to open. The screw itself is easy, but the insert is sealed in tight.
