Steiner 3 Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Hey there!!! That's my kind of tumbler i've built... The idea was not to create another machine that will only suck more space in my workshop. So why don't we'll build some attachement for my belt grinder?! Would like to hear what you guys think of it.... And as again....please excuse my bad english!!!....i can't even speak my "native" language.... Link to post Share on other sites
Kreg Whitehead 67 Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Nice video editing =) I assume you are going to tumble the grind marks off the blade as opposed to hand sanding? Never really thought of that. I got tired of sanding grinding marks and bought an electric random orbital and some hook and loop 220. Once I get past the grind marks and 220 by hand it seems to go pretty quick. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Steiner 3 Posted December 14, 2017 Author Share Posted December 14, 2017 Hey there Kreg!!! No never thought of that....till now... Thanks mate....i hate sanding as well!!!!! No i just simply intended this tumbler for creating stone washed finishes... I needed this for a more or less "replica" of Ragnars axe from the series "Vikings".... But thanks for this little cheat... 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Dave Stephens 486 Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 I liked the Sponge Bob elements of your video. Very funny. Great hack. Luck in the build of the axe.

The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly." -- Theodore Roosevelthttp://stephensforge.com Link to post Share on other sites
