Stone polisher

[Dalboy]

Having seen a couple of items made by forum members on another site using stones to embellish their pieces when a stone polisher came up of free cycle I jumped at the chance. I was thinking of using a grinder to cut to shape then put them in the polisher. Does this seem feasible.
This is the little beast I id have to strip the two rollers down and clean them and everything now works it also came with enough abrasive to do at least 20 to 30 loads as well as instructions.

Using stones to embolism their pieces???????

Obviously you can't polish internal angles with a tumbler and you'll probably find it doesn't polish any totally flat surfaces well and it'll knock the corners off everything, but give it a go. Nothing to lose. You get stainless steel shot to use in them for polishing metal - http://www.cooksongold.com/Jewellery-To ... e-998-003B - it ain't cheap, though. :shock:
