Is there a source for extra drums for the Harbor Freight Single Drum Rotary Rock Tumbler? Or does any one have plans to make extra drums?
I want to get a rock tumbler which I have plans to use from brass cleaning, rock tumbling, ball mill, glass tumbling, etc. I would like to keep separate drums for each use.

Thanks for the info. I did notice the dimensions were about the same if not exactly. I need to look at them in person to make my final decision. I think I can make a drum out either 4"(outside dia is 4.5) or go with 3". The double barrel ones are the way to go.

There's folks that have made one big drum using PVC pipe for these, works well by all reports.
