wvrons Posted December 6, 2022 Report Share Posted December 6, 2022 Sooner or later, it will break the marbles. Rock tumblers have been tried by thousands the last 30+ years. The end results were always broken marbles. No matter what material was used. Either it never changed the marbles much or it broke them. I post this every six months or more often on a couple chat boards . But people are still trying to use a rock tumbler to polish glass marbles. It either is a waste of electric and time or you have broken marbles. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe2 Posted December 6, 2022 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2022 I did consider it, broken marbles especially with the finer ones. I have not researched any tutorials on the pros & cons of this method of polishing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe2 Posted December 9, 2022 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2022 so, I would have to say there was little to no change in the clarification process for a second and third run a 24-hour run would be sufficient for any surface scratches. I will now proceed to the next process to follow up with. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
