Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Project Questions - Rotary Tumbler

I have NO experience with this, but I have seen on You Tube a home made wet tumbler system that the fellow glued strips of small diameter split PVC pipe to the inside of the drum. He used regular PVC pipe cement to glue it into place. I do not know how well it held up, but I would guess it would hold quite well if given plenty of time to cure before use. Try it and see. It won't cost you too much if it doesn't work. I wet tumble with a Harbor Freight twin drum tumbler. The drums are rubber lined and therefore catch and spin the SS pins and brass as opposed to slick PVC pipe. I don't know, but just a thought: Maybe you could add a thin coat of Flex-Seal to the inside of your drum?

Please follow up with a report of what works and doesn't work. Thanks.
