Have you ever wondered how
Have you ever wondered how to tumble beach rocks? Do you tumble in a rotary tumbler? Watch how I use a National Geographic Tumbler to polish some rocks from Lake Superior.
These are the steps I took in this video. For the last three stages, you could probably get away with a little less time.
Stage 1: 3 TBSP 46/70 silicon carbide (60/90 grit or 80 grit or something similar would work too) for three days at time. Repeat until each rock is flawless.
Stage 2: 3 TBSP 220 silicon carbide for seven days
Stage 3: 3 TBSP 500 aluminum oxide for ten days.
Stage 4: 3 TBSP aluminum oxide polish (1-2 micron or over 10,000 grit) for fourteen days.

– KINGSLEY NORTH –
Kingsley North is a lapidary store in Michigan's U.P. They make a great cab machine and sell many other brands too. They have a huge selection rough rock, tumblers, grit, jewelry supplies etc. at good prices. I buy most of my coarse grit from here in 45 lb. bags. It's the best price I have found. If you buy using the following link, I make a small commission.

I buy a lot of lapidary supplies from The Rock Shed. I don't make money from your purchases there, but they have good prices and good service. This is where I buy my finer grits and polish.
