My little model, the Bear
I spent some time this week working on a few new pendants for my Etsy shop. I thought I was doing great and things were really moving forward. Then...it happened.
My rock tumbler suddenly ceased to tumble. I took the cover off. There are no visible problems...(who am I kidding? I have no idea what I'm looking at.) The belt, which I have replaced before, was still intact. If I manually spun the main spinny piece, the belt spun the other piece just as it should. Plugging it in produced a small hum, but no visible action.
Sooooo....yeah. My 6 year old tumbler died. Looks like I'm going to be spending some Steem on a new tumbler if I want to continue trying to sell tumbled stones and pendants.
Anyway, here is what I got done this week!
If you'd like to have one of these for your own or you'd like to see more, please visit my Etsy shop, Stoned Hill Creations.
I hope I can either get my tumbler back running or get a new one soon. It's funny how just when I think I'm gaining some kind of identity of my own...something comes and shits on it. Frustrating. Anyway, thanks for stopping by!
