1500 Turbo Vibratory Tumbler
Because hand polishing dozens of pieces sounds like a punishment, not a hobby.
If you've got a pile of jewelry that needs cleaning, deburring, brightening, or smoothing, this heavy-duty vibratory tumbler is ready to earn its keep. Originally designed for industrial cleaning applications, its large-capacity bowl and aggressive tumbling action make it a great choice for jewelers who process a lot of pieces at once. The spiral agitators keep media moving efficiently for consistent results throughout the bowl.
Whether you're running walnut shell, corn cob, or other dry jewelry-finishing media, this tumbler gives you plenty of room to work without constantly running tiny batches.

Bench Reality
This is not one of those tiny hobby tumblers that holds six earrings and a dream. This thing was built to keep media moving.
The large bowl means you can process a serious pile of components, findings, blanks, or finished pieces without constantly waiting for the next batch. And because the bowl is designed with spiral agitators, the contents keep circulating instead of simply vibrating in place.
Will it magically turn rough castings into mirror-polished jewelry? No.
That's still your job.
But it will save you a tremendous amount of hand-finishing time and make repetitive polishing work far less tedious.
A Friendly Warning
Like most tumblers, this machine has only two speeds:
1. Running.
2. Why is it so quiet in here?
You'll quickly find yourself tossing in "just one more batch" before heading home.
Big capacity. Serious agitation. Less bench time spent polishing by hand.
And honestly, that's a pretty good trade.
