RE: build my own tumbler - 11/1/2006 5:59:22 PM    capsoda Posts: 7347 Joined: 11/15/2005 From: Seminole,Alabama, USA Status: offline Hey Pono, Not yet, soon but you did already mention it and it's a great idea. I jumped on it right away. My pains are lower back, hips and legs so I know how bad it can get even on a 4" tube. I take the pills the doc gave me when it gets bad enough. If I'm gona be in pain I might as well be happy about it. Ha. I figure on using a three way switch. I had to move my tumbler so I can install some cabnets at that work station so my tumbler will be out of commision for a while. You guys got any straight sided Coke bottles there. Can't recall ever seein any. If so what would they run. _____________________________ Warren Diggin down in Dixie, USA Work is for people who don't dig bottles President, Panhandle Cruisers http://www.panhandlecruisers.org/ (in reply to stinger haut) Post #: 81

Just make sure that the motor is stopped before activiating the next switch. I have never collected cokes. What would be the best reference book on them? I had a chance to buy a bunch of hobble skirt and dark cokes with arrows on them. Bad backs are so bothersome. My day is based around my backpain. Stinger (in reply to capsoda) Post #: 82

I have Petretti's, one that has locals and one on Alabama Cokes. I have been trying to find a copy of Porters book but no luck yet. I use the inter net alot. Know what you mean about planing your day around it.Can get to be a real pain in the ass some times. _____________________________ Warren Diggin down in Dixie, USA Work is for people who don't dig bottles President, Panhandle Cruisers http://www.panhandlecruisers.org/ (in reply to stinger haut) Post #: 83

There is some great information and pictures on making your own tumbler, stopples and cutting your own copper. I found it tucked back 9 pages and the last reply was over a year ago. ~Tom (in reply to capsoda) Post #: 88
