Rock Tumbling - How to Open the Barrel & How to Oil the Tumbler Bearings

[@WilliamGivens-uf1sd]

This video is great for showing how to use it. Thank you very much.

[@dollyhendry4453]

Thanks - that worked

[@MrChubbyHubby.]

Cool video Lance Dean, very informative and well done. One thing that might help you with the oiling is plastic squeeze pipettes, I have found them at Hobby Lobby in the modeling section, I think they were Testors brand, they work great at delivering a drop or 2 in tiny spots. Thank you for showing us.

Thanks! My trouble here was attempting to hold a cellphone gimbal in one hand while holding a 3 in One can in the other and trying to oil the bearings. 🤣

Thank you!😅

Do all the QT 12 have steel end bearings instead of the plastic or was that a customazation thanks

[@LanceDean]

The ones on my QT12 are plastic and I assume they all are. They are just a darker colored plastic than the white ones you usually see on the non QT series Lortone tumblers.

I also open my tumbler like this, I couldn’t tell you the amount of times I’ve cut myself.

[@MrChubbyHubby.]

First! Woot!! Woot!!!

I need a video that shows how to get the lid ON (a harbor freight RT)😡

[@LanceDean]

I can understand. You just press it down, start in one place and work around the lid if needed. The more you do it and the older the barrel gets, it gets easier.

Bushings*

[@LanceDean]

I know what you're saying, but the manufacturer and all parts catalogs call them bearings, not bushings.

[@TheCaydon]

@@LanceDean fair enough mate 👍🏻
