[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3417961, member: 15054"] I will see if the pics will load. Milk crate for the base. 5/8" zinc plated solid rod for drive rod. Zinc plated was cheapest 11 bucks for 3 foot. Old sewing machine motor pulled off sewing machine I found in a fill ditch. V pulley with 5/8" shaft and had the set screw in it for the big drive pulley. Big O ring for the drive belt. One of those dimmer fan switches. Some wood and screws. The idler roller is a rolling pin my neighbors wife hated. The drive roller is held in place with harbor freight $3.99 wheels. I took the wheel apart and used it to hold bearings against the wood. Drill hole big enough for the rim of the bearing to pass through the wood. I built the first portion of the tumbler for my neighbor to get him lined out. I had him install the rolling pin idler and mount the motor and fan switch. Toss a 2 quart V8 Bottle onto it and it will spin. Tape on the bottle and tape on the drive roller for traction Gorilla Tape.
