Each tumbling cycle with the KomeStone C1 Rock Tumbler typically takes about a week. The tumbling process is divided into four stages: coarse grind, medium grind, pre-polish, and polish. Here is a breakdown of the suggested tumbling times for each stage:
- Coarse Grind: This stage is the longest and typically lasts for 7 days. It is important to round out the edges of the rocks and achieve a smooth surface.
- Medium Grind: After the coarse grind, the rocks are ready for the medium grind stage. This stage also lasts for 7 days and helps further refine the shape and smoothness of the rocks.
- Pre-Polish: The pre-polish stage is crucial for achieving a high luster on the rocks. It usually lasts for 2 hours and helps remove any remaining grit and impurities.
- Polish: The final stage is the polish stage, where the rocks are polished to a shiny finish. This stage lasts for 7-9 days to ensure a beautiful polish on the rocks.
It is important to note that these are suggested tumbling times and can vary depending on the type and hardness of the rocks being tumbled. It is recommended to check the progress of the rocks periodically and adjust the tumbling time if needed.
