Kitchenaid Rock Tumbler

pinshape

After completing a crude prototype of this tumbler to refine some bronzefill dice I made, I revisited the idea to create a more polished version. This requires a very small amount of materials to make and there will be a version coming along that can be built with only filament, without any M3 screws and nuts. For this version, you'll need: 2 X M3x30 3 X M3x18 5 X M3n This design can be easily printed in PLA or PETG, and there are files available for "bearings" made of PLA, as well as TPU-lined "Pro bearings". The bearings have the same measurement as skateboard bearings, so you can use those if you have a few spares lying around. The build instructions can be followed by looking at the pictures, and all you'll need is an Allen wrench for assembly. To add visual style to match my Kitchenaid, filament layer swaps are recommended. For 3D printing, support will need to be added to The Tumbler Housing Back, Tumbler Housing Front, and Tumbler Can. A brim will also need to be added to The Tumbler Can Mounting Post and Tumbler Housing Arm. Either PLA or PTEG are acceptable filaments for this project. The Tumbler Bearing Pro Flex is printed in TPU. Check out the video tutorials at https://youtu.be/9esZC7_mMno and https://youtu.be/ueDi7i0mzX8
