HOW TO USE A ROCK TUMBLER
If you like to tumble rocks DMSeeleysTools.com has a nice Rotary Dual Drum Rock tumbler tool for cleaning and polishing small stones or hardware. The way the tumbler works is the rocks fall over and over and over, polishing rocks in much the same manner as the ocean has for millions of years. Be advised that your choice of rock size is limited by the small rotor power and that it may be difficult to get replacement parts like a broken belt from an over weighted tumbler. DMSeeleysTools.com usually has belts.
Tumblers are sized according to the weight of the load they can continuously bear. The most common cause of rotor failure and belt breakage is improper or over-loading of the barrel. . Double barrels can be used to polish lots of rocks or to ensure a really good polish (if you reserve one barrel for that purpose).
The rock tumbler is a ideal bench top hand tool to have on hand for descaling , deburring, and surface conditioning for smaller items. Use on semi precious stones, glass, metals, remove rust or polish jewelry what ever your needs require. Quiet low-speed tumblers are designed to run for days at a time, ensuring a smooth, lustrous finish. Some tumblers have Rubber barrels for quieter operation. The following is a good way to polish jewelry.
You can use a Small rotary tumbler and barrel.
Soap (not detergent). Ivory soap flakes are recommended.
Polished steel shot. You want enough to fill the barrel about halfway.
Procedure
Pour the shot into a clean barrel to about the halfway mark.
Add enough water to cover the shot plus about 3/4 inch.
Add a tablespoon of soap flakes.
Load the jewelry and/or components into the barrel. You want them to be able to tumble, so pack them loosely.
Seal the barrel and let the tumbler rotate for 6-8 hours.
When the pieces are sufficiently polished, remove them from the tumbler and rinse them well with water
Do you want rounded rocks, or more natural looking rocks?
If you really do not want a well rounded rock, you may want to look at a vibrating model instead of a rotary machine also found at DMSeeleysTools.com. We get consistently better results with our rotary models, but occasionally we find someone who finds a vibrating model suits their needs better. If you are just starting out we recommend starting with a rotary machine. They truly are easier to operate.
So why get a vibratory tumbler?" you ask. They have a very useful purpose. They don't change the shape of your stones. If you have stones that you have cut and ground to a specific shape and you want to polish a lot of them at once, then you can use a vibratory tumbler.
On the other hand, vibratory tumblers tend to be a bit more expensive than their rotary counterparts. However, if 'time is money' and you want to retain more of the shape and size of the original material, then a vibratory tumbler may be just what you need.
Make a balanced load that includes for large and small rocks. For a 2.5 lb bowl, sizes from 1/8" to 1" work well. A proper slurry is needed to get the best polish in the least time. If there is too little water, then the thickness of the mixture will prevent proper movement, thus slowing the polishing action. Too much water results in too thin of a slurry, which will result in a much longer time to achieve a polish. The grit may settle out of the mixture altogether. Never wash grit down the drain! Plastic pellets may be rinsed and reused, but you cannot reuse grit. Best to your work Denny at DMSeeleysTools.com

Home Hand Tools For Leather
If you like crafts and working with leather or find your self needing to repair leather items you own such as purses, belts, shoes, or other items around your home there is a Hand Tool that works well. You could go about the job armed with a stout needle and some strong thread . . . but that's the hard way to do leather and canvas work. A much easier way would be to use a handy little Hand Tool device known as a Sewing Awl.
An argument made against hand tools is that it's hard to make them work. A hundred years ago and more, people made hand tools work. They had no choice: You need the right tool and to develop the skills to maintain and use it properly. If you can duplicate that skill, you can be productive in making nice item out of leather.
A picture of the Awl hand tool can be seen at DMSeeleystools. It has storage in the handle for thread (Everything pictured included) and storage for your needles under the silver cap and Instructions make this a very useful hand tool for your home tool box and sewing or repairing leather goods.
The Awl can be handsomely designed with a comfortable wooden handle. This Awl had 4 different sizes of needles and a bobbin to hold the nylon thread, making the whole Hand Tool quite compact. Other types feature exposed bobbins and storage space for extra needles inside the handle. Both types of awls perform well.
Besides sewing or joining pieces of leather together there is Incising or taking a hand tool knife or in modern tooling, a swivel tool knife, and inscribing a design into the surface of the leather. Note that a dull hand tool knife can leave a much larger "line" than a sharp one, and will not weaken the surface strength as much. This is *possibly* the most common method of ornamentation for leather during the Middle Ages.
Numerous examples can be found in Knives and Scabbards, Shoes and Patterns, etc. Carving technically is the technique of undercutting the leather surface and making it physically stand out from the general surface of the leather. Cutout-- is Creating a design by punching holes in the leather. An excellent tool for small holes is a very heavy duty leather hand tool punch at DMSeeleysTools.
I like the large size hand tool punch making it easier to punch holes in challenging materials with it's comfortable anti slip grips. Nice addition to your shop or home hand tool craft needs. Punch sizes are 7/64'', 1/8'' , 5/32'', 11/63'', 3/16'', 13/64'' ; The Overall length is 9-1/2'' and it is Light weight with high carbon steel punches that are strong enough for most of your project needs.
What ever your leather project may be from starting something new or repairing something old the Sewing Awl or Leather Punch are reliable hand tools to assist you in your home workshop project or repairs. These hand tools will help you duplicate your skill so you can be productive in repairing or making nice items out of leather.

Snap Hand Tool Kit
DELUXE SNAP HAND TOOL KIT
This NEW snap tool set is a real winner from DMSeeleysTools I sell a couple snap hand tools and this really is a deluxe tool kit and has all kinds of extras!
The vise grip pliers hand tool is the base for the set and is really neat because by implementing changeable jaws, 18 of them it now becomes many tools in one. Not only that but you can reduce or increase the tool pressure with the threaded adjustment screw this puts extra power in your hands which can come in handy for thicker material and can save on your wrist or hand wearing out before your done.
This snap hand tool will set the canvas style snap you might see on boat covers, (snaps included). Not only that It will also set button snaps. The type you may see on clothing also( included). Make another quick jaw change and you can now use it with the gold brass grommets 6.35 & 6.36 MM which are also included for larger stress protected holes. I use them on my flags and they look great. Also use them on any stress tie down. Pool covers grill covers, that fire wood pile you decide.
That’s not all, change the jaws again and you now have a powerful hole or center punch. It can also be used to countersink or indent your material by adjusting the threaded screw. Use on leather or other thick similar material.
That’s not all this handy home or work shop snap hand tool kit does. It also will set rivets in 3 sizes 3/16" 1/8" and 5/32" again (included). It also has the ability to be used to remove those same rivets. Last but not least there are two protective plane jaws to use for no mar gripping up to 1/2" thick. All this in a handy impact plastic case from DMSeeleysTools for your at home hand tools needs.
