    Does anyone have one?
    If Not...what would you pay to have your Rim Screws done.

    I'm looking into getting one..any thoughts?

    I have experience with the Harbor Freight Tumbler. It came with some "rust-cutting resin abrasive media". They are little green pyramids and I would not suggest using that media. It didn't work well at all for us.

    I would suggest using a media such as aluminum oxide, glass bead or some sort of polishing abrasive for your bolts. I have seen them work wonders, however the media we used didn't work.

    What are you looking to do? Just tumble to remove rust, grease, debris, etc? Or actually have them polished?

        there is a little bit of discussion of using tumblers to polish rimscrews on wheel whores.

          I have a tumbler and use it to clean/ polish bolts all the time, the abrasive from harbor freight is a crap imitation of some of the better rust cutting media available.
