me, being the cheapskate that i am, have been using a lyman 1200 tumbler for 25+(could be 30) years. it still works but i'm getting a little bit tired of buying media. i have been looking at wet tumbling, but i don't want to pay $130 or more. (cheapskate i am) i have been looking at a chicago dual drum at harbor freight and all the things that go with it(ss pellets, dish soap, lemi shine). i should be ok if i go with the dual drum(i've been thinking of a single drum, 4" (approx 9" sewer pipe, 4" cap and 4" sewer plug).
but i'm wondering if wet tumbling does a better job than dry tumbling((nu finish, dry sheets)?
