Me too.Thanks for posting! I see what you are saying about wearing down the edges but leaving most of the texture on the face. And the chipping I imagine is from the tumbling motion causing the chips to strike each other repeatedly. I am curious to see what @cpiaaq 's vibrating machine does.
What abrasive media did you use?I have rock tumbled super diamonds to get rid of the flashing and provide a bit of wear (using them in a vintage Faro game setup).
It worked great at polishing off any flashing and only wore the edges a little. I did it overnight for each barrel because they are hard plastic.
Someone’s gonna invent an automatic chip-shuffling machine, aren’t they?
Just regular sand. I didn’t want to use the carbides, I was ok with a media that would wear as well as the chips. Not as severe as cutting carbides, I wanted to clean the edges and simulate some wear, but I didn’t want to grind them down.What abrasive media did you use?
