Here is a recipe to keep your tumbler clean and happy: run your tumbler with a 50/50 mix of distilled vinegar and water for 20 minutes. Rinse, then follow up with 1 tbsp baking soda and enough water to cover the shots for another twenty minutes. A dirty tumbler can actually contaminate your pieces. It’s also recommended to completely rinse out your barrel after each use, dry your shots and store them outside of the barrel 😅 Glass jars work nice for that. #metalsmithsociety #jewelrytumbler #jewelrytips #maintainingjewelryequipment #jewelrytools
