I came across a really heavy duty lazy susan and thought it would work good in a dead corner in my work area. I had two loto tumblers in that corner before and they were a little hard to get to so they found a new home on the other side of the shop. It does not hold nearly enough slabs but I did empty about 8 medium flat rate boxes into it. The two 12 pound tumblers up top do not stay there but the tumbler area looks more impressive when they are up there. If I did my math right there is 72 pound capacity in the rotaries but it has been a really long time since I was foolish enough to fill them all. I still have my mind set on getting something like this for slabs then the lazy susan can be used for tumbling rough. Thanks for looking Chuck

That's cool. You either have a bunch of rock stashed out of your picture or you've really been disciplined to not collect more rock than you can process.

A few flat rate boxes of pudding stone slabs are stashed away but I have no intentions of hoarding rocks. There are 10 boxes full of misc. slabs on the shelf under the genie plus the drawers are full. chuck

I don't mean to hoard rocks, it just happens. I need more tumblers I guess.

Dandy way to put the dead corner to good use.

Liking that lazy susan. Who makes it? Be cool if they were stackable two high. " I have no intentions of hoarding rocks."

The trays are all 1/4" thick ABS plastic. My neighbor was cleaning his garage out and asked if I wanted it. I instantly thought of that dead corner space. Chuck

That looks perfect. I like the tall dividers between each tray opening. Years ago when my local family owned hardware store closed up shop they sold a bunch just like that. They were used for bulk screws and nails so they were build heavy duty. Chuck
