New Tumbler

[doctorjohn]

I'm looking to buy an additional vibratory tumbler. Currently I'm using a Midway 1292 that I've had for many years. Recently, I repaired the wiring on the 1292. It's working fine, but I'm thinking I'd like to have a backup machine. Also, as long as the 1292 works, I can use one unit for walnut and the other for corn cob.

I'm looking at the Cabela's Model 400 and the Cabela's QD detachable-bowl tumbler. I've read good reviews on the Model 400, allegedly manufactured by Berry's Manufacturing. I don't really need the sifter, polish, and corn cob that comes in the Model 400 kit, but that's the only way they sell it.

Is there anything to recommend one of these units over the other?

Brownells has Berry's 400 for $53, free shipping 'till midnight. Jump on it.

Berry's makes Cabelas last I knew.

Here's another good choice. Might be a hair smaller than the Berrys/Cabelas. I bought one on sale ($39.99) after my Berrys crapped out for the third time and I like it. Right now it's $49 plus $7.99 shipping.

$53 shipped for the Berrys is a good deal.
