To achieve the perfect polished rock it is necessary to have a really quality kind of tumbler machine. The Lortone rock tumbler is perhaps the best on the market and there are several size choices for your needs.

Lortone offers several different sized machines. The size of the machine you use does make a difference in the final product so you will need to understand which is the best size for you.

The Lortone rock tumbler’s different sizes accommodates different needs. If you are just starting out you will probably want to buy the smaller tumbler machine. This will save on the amount of polish and grit you need while still getting a really excellent result.

When your need is for the larger stones or for a larger amount of stones, then there is a medium or mid-sized tumbler that might be your better choice. The rule of thumb is, the larger the machine is the larger the quantity of rocks needed for the machine to perform at its best. If you are doing a commercial run, there is a production type machine available to meet your needs.

No matter which Lortone rock tumbler you decide meets your needs, it is important to remember that no tumbler machine will hold up over time if it is overloaded. Overloading can cause the motor to be over worked and the belt can break under the pressure.

The machines should always be used on very level and sturdy surfaces for optimal performance. Keep these two things in mind and your Lortone rock tumbler will be with you for years to come.

Rock tumblers come with a sure-seal closure and molded rubber barrel. Some machines weigh 1. 5 pounds and depending on the size can weigh as much as twelve pounds. Each model is quiet and study with easy to use functions that give amazing results. They can also be very good for jewelry tumbling.

The Lortone rock tumbler comes in a large assortment beginning with the small tumblers that are perfect if you are just getting started, tumblers that have twin barrels, three barrels and the large capacity tumbler. There are also different kits available plus rocks and all the accessories you will need for your projects.
