    It's not recommended to tumble different types of stones together due to the vastly different levels of mohs hardness. For example if you tumble corundum like those rubies you tossed in they will abrade the softer stones badly while the rubies will take a lower level of polish. By the final polish the harder stones will continue scratching the softer stones and the polish won't be consistent. Great video quality otherwise and happy rockhounding.

    As a Jewellery designer, just passing on some info, you really shouldn't tumble different stones... by doing it that way you will reduce some of the softer stones to beads as they are slammed into the denser stones.

      The rocks have a harder time chipping when they are more polished. But with non polished rocks and/or gems they can chip way easier. So it makes sense to be more careful with them at the beginning then a little less careful when they are polished. Plus when he pours them into the strainer it’s like 2 inches away which won’t chip the rocks

    Back in the 1970's when I was in middle school, I got a small rock tumbler for Christmas. It ran continuously day and night for weeks in my bedroom. I changed the grinding medium and water every week or so. It was a long process but it worked. I only used it the one time period. The rocks came with the grinder and I never tried it again after that. I guess at the time it was too expensive to keep doing it, or maybe too drawn-out of a process, or whatever. And I never knew what to do with the rocks afterwards, other than look at them. There were little mounts included for jewelry, but I didn't care about any of that. But, it was pretty cool at the same time.

    you can always save your slurry... keep the grits separate ... store them an reuse them.. even tho they loose some of their cutting ability they still work wonderfully and saves a lot of money in the end .. use them till they loose its ability to cut and smooth the stones... FYI....

      Stone soup is a legit thing where you use a porous stone preferavly with a lot of calcium in it for different batches of soups or stews in the winter.
      It adds a bit of trace mineral value to your winter broths/soups/stews and helps with keeping things savory as supplies run low.
      It's the same concept as a soup bone, but less efficient.
