I belive that its a 15 or 18 lbs vib. The whole lot fit in the 15lb tumbler with a bit of plastic pellets.

Good heavens at the pretty cabs, riverrock! What's the shiny material? psilomelane? Really like the crazy lace (?) with the cool orb rising out of the banding.

Quite a productive bunch of very nice cabs. The heavy metal must be rutile or hematite....... ? Most tumble with the rotary first and then the vib last. To each his own........it's working anyway you want to do it. 39don

riverrock I had a similar thought to 39don - curious as to the benfits of polish in the rotary versus the vibe? Clearly your system works, killer shine. Cheers.
