    187 watts for the treadmill, 35 watts for the rock tumbler, and 260 watts for the cement mixer. For my jump rings the treadmill comes out to cost ~11 cents (4hr tumble total) and the rock tumbler ~45 cents (8*12 hours total) and the cement mixer the lowest at ~10 cents (3 hours total). Mostly the lower time of tumbling wins for efficiency with the bigger machines.

    This is my favorite kind of video. Problem solving and engineering at its finest!

    I would like directions for your rock tumbler. I would absolutely love to tumble 30 pounds of rocks at once! :)

    Try a larger tire such as a used truck tire or fat machinery tire for rocks. If you can find a logger, their tires are super wide and not terribly large in diameter.

    What about using used tire and JB weld to attach rubber for the inside of cement metal bin?

    • @BuildItMakeIt

      Yeah that’s a good idea. I may have to try that.

    I was planning to use a cement mixer and remove the paddles. Then line it with some rubber mats I got that used to be in a gym floor.

      Oh I really like the idea of the gym floor. Let me know how it goes, I would love some more ideas.
