Shucks, and I headed over your link hoping to be impressed. I thought it would be a cement truck or something.
My friend Sam has a tumbler that's an old cement mixer. It's humongous. He uses sand as the tumbling medium, and it works. |

Cement mixer with plastic paddles might be a really good wet media tumbler, too. I wouldn't be using sand, though. You look at pictures of Egyptian mummies and they have, if they lived long, teeth that are real white and real worn from the sand dust. I don't think I want that happening to my dies.
