Lyman turbo tumbler 1200

[captain2k_ca]

Just got one, brand new display model

Gotta love ebay! Got it for less than half of what a "Brand new" one would cost me from wholesalesports....

So what do people suggest as use for media, additives etc??

Need to find an "instruction manual" for the thing tho....gonna go check Lymans website

You can use corn cob or crushed walnut shells for media, and for most routine cleaning, you don't need any additives at all.

(For media on the cheap, go to a pet supply store and get a bag of crushed walnut shell. Much cheaper than from a reloading supply place.)

I have a Lyman tumbler, too, and it's performed just great for me.
I get media on sale when I see it- corn cob or walnut hulls, I don't care.
If you get cheap media, you don't feel bad about changing it
I don't use additives at all- just the media. Works for me.

Corn cob media, seems to be working nicely

My kid wants to know if these things will polish stones??
