Once you folks get a feel for your machines, put those cylinder shapes on high speed, I have lots of nice old bottles that I picked up at reasonable prices, stuff like Schnecks pulmonic and Dr Wistars for like a buck... I put them on high speed, they come out great even though they are 8-12 sided. In almost 2 years I have not lost a bottle to breakage.....* NOTE* dont put anything valuable in and whip em up these are "dollar" bottles. I pay a buck and make 15-20 on the return... So if one breaks Oh well..... On high speed you will cut your cleaning time in half... Just my opinion.... Taz

I here ya Taz....I am just getting used to the machine, plus I like the slow tumbling speed because it is quieter. I tried a bottle on high speed and it does clean faster, however, it makes a lot more noise.

Diggerjeff......Yup the Wyeth bottle is the next one on the list to tumble.....I can't wait to see it shine after two or three days on the tumbler![
