tumbler

[rlo]

I have a vibration tumbler for rocks, can I use that w/ walnut shell for the smaller bottles

I think sand would work better. The walnut shells would get stuck in the little bottles once inside.

you're right probably would

they have different sizes of shells. I tried them once but the best way to use them is like a sand blaster, that is the way they are to be used.
But i am not sure how good this vibrateing tumbler will work. but i tried many different ways till i bought one and then made 4 more tumblers.

You have to be carful using sand. Sand may contain materials like garnets that are harder than the glass and act as a cutting agent.
