MODEL TB-12
Our Tumble-Bee TB-12 comes with one 2lb capacity barrel. This model is the perfect size for professional tumbling of smaller materials such as stones, glass, and metals that need to be deburred and/or polished.
MODEL TB-22
Our Tumble-Bee TB-22 comes with two 2lb capacity barrels. This model tumbles two barrels at once, which allows two people to use the Tumble-Bee at the same time or you can tumble two different grits/materials at once. Polish stones, glass and metals.
MODEL TB-14
Our Tumble-Bee TB-14 comes with one 4lb capacity barrel. This model is the perfect size for professional tumbling of larger materials such as stones, glass, and metals that need to be deburred and/or polished.
EASY TO USE
Whether you are a beginner, a professional, or a kid looking to get into rock tumbling, our tumblers have a user-friendly design and easy-to-follow instructions, making it easy for everyone and anyone to use. With a compact size and safe operation, you can feel confident in your purchase of a Tumble-Bee.
Non-slip Timing Belt
Featuring a grooved design, this ensures the belt stays securely in place on the pulleys, resulting in a smooth operation. Constructed of durable polyurethane with added polyester fibers, the belt maintains its shape without splitting.
Thermal Overload Protector
The Tumble-Bee rock tumbler is equipped with a thermal overload protector, which automatically turns off the motor to protect both the device and the user in case of overheating.
On/Off Power Switch
The lighted power switch easily indicates if the Tumble-Bee is on or off, preventing you from plugging or unplugging before and after use. While this might seem like a no-brainer, many tumbler manufacturers skimp on this simple feature.
Housing and Moving Parts
The motor and pulleys are shielded with a motor cover for your safety. Made with hard ABS plastic, the Tumble-Bee rock tumbler housing is rust-free and has no sharp edges.
TUMBLING SET
Tumbling a rough rock into a polished stone is a self-rewarding experience. We designed our rotary tumblers with advanced features such as a thermal overload protector, a non-slip timing belt, a lighted power switch, shielded moving parts, and a rust-proof housing. The rock grit polishing kit is available as well.

The barrel is very robust and the two piece lid remains completely water tight throughout a 30 day tumble. The frame is constructed of high impact plastic that is quite rigid and more than adequate for the purpose. The motor is of high quality and the transformer is quite robust. The roller bars are designed very well and makes for a very smooth tumble. Additionally, the unit comes with a replacement belt. Overall it's a great tumbler and the 4 pound capacity is just so nice. I can tumble more than double the amount of rocks that I had been able to in the past.

This product is just fantastic. I have been using it for well over a month constantly making sea glass and it only takes three days or less to make the glass. It has been running 24/7 all this time with no problems. A great machine for the price. It took a long time to research the one I wanted. Those who had negative comments about this item don't know what they are doing or are not mechanically inclined. This device is simple to use and is a work horse. Would definitely recommend and buy again.

I dove into tumbling with National Geographic. I soon realized it was insufficient for my needs. My next brand was tumble-bee. I haven't had many issues at all; however when i did experience an overheating issue Jennifer & tumble-bee staff were quick to take care of my concerns efficiently and with professionalism. I am a happy customer and looking forward to their future developments!I have since dabbled with a few other tumblers. I do find tumble-bee to br a bit noisier than some others ive seen but the reliability and service makes this brand stand out.I will Bee a happy tumbling returning customer

I ordered two of the double barrel Tumble Bees. They do work great and produce good quality results (check the photo). However, my first one burned out the motor after 3-4 months of constant use. I followed the manual and set it up as indicated and oiled it frequently (once a week at least). My second one is still running after about 3 months.For the price I still think this is a good tumbler to start rock tumbling, but expect to upgrade down the road if you stick with it.

I have had this in constant use since I got it two months ago. I am a complete novice with tumbling and our first batch turned out great. Use and setup was easy, with checks after each grit run I have had no issues. It is a bit noisy but it is a rock tumbler so that should be expected. I am sure at some point I will get a better larger tumbler but this has been great to learn with.

I purchased a Bumble-Bee Rock Tumbler - Large Rock Tumbler for Adults and Kids - Rotary Tumbler for Stone, Rock, Metal and Sea Glass Tumbler Machine - Stone Vibratory Tumbler - Model TB-14, 1X4LB BarrelWithin 5-6 weeks the motor ceased up and the threaded lid attachment is rusted.Not sure if this is fluke or if this machine is a simply poor-quality machine. Sad because initially I liked the larger volume of stone it could tumble.I had to return it for refund.

The product is easy to use but you must follow the directions to get amazing results. That means a good cleaning of the barrel and the rocks, a good stiff brush helps here.

Much better machine than the Komestone model I ordered from you a few weeks ago. The motor in that machine lastedabout 3 weeks and then died. A piece of junk. The tumble bee seems to compare with a Loretone which I had before and it lasted 11 years. Here is hoping!

Enjoy tumbling two different types or mediums at once. Got this to upgrade from a single drum. So far very happy.
