Rock/Jewelry Polisher Tumbler
    #28261479 - 04/04/23 03:47 AM (9 months, 20 days ago)

Im thinking of buying a mini rock/jewelry polisher tumbler. I have two uses for it: polishing small, crystals i find at the beach/rivers/mountains and for trying to polish the outside surface of Morning Glory seeds.

Has anyone ever used one here? Maybe even built their own?

I bought one for dispersing pigments. It does OK for that purpose and I bet it'll do OK for the seed polishing as well. For the pigment grinding, I use steel shot; I suppose you'd use something else (sand, perhaps) for the seeds. The tumbler I've got has a rubber cup; I honestly don't think it'll work well for stones. In all honesty, it's a ramshackle affair, but it gets the job done I've got it for. Cost me around $80 I think.

Interesting, OK.

The one Im getting is built for polishing small rocks. Should work. I found a bunch of different choices in "grit" to put inside the tumbling barrel such as Silicon Carbide and Aluminum Oxide. I'll probably try both materials and see what works best. My guess is the Aluminum Oxide will probably work better. Experiments coming soon....

Very interesting. I loved using rock tumblers as a kid on crystals and rocks I found as a child. What is the benefit of polishing morning glory seeds? I'm not familiar. Thanks!

Cool! This is the first one Ive ever owned. Its super cool. Im actually using it right now! It actually works!

So the concept is that the outer coating of MG seeds is the most toxic part of the seeds. So my idea is to remove the outer coating so when I do an extraction later with them, less toxins will end up in the extracted product. The mechanical removal of the seed coating via a rock tumbler seems like the easiest method of doing this.

After about 3hrs of tumbling the seeds with "coarse" silicon grit, I noticed a fine brown powder on the inside of the tumbling drum. And the seeds looked more polished than usual. Thats exactly what I wanted!

Im currently on hour 8 or so of tumbling. Im seeing how far I can go until i can (hopefully) take the entire dark brown outer seed coating off, leaving only a light brown core of the seed (where the LSA is located).

I was also thinking of ordering granular activated carbon charcoal to both use as grit for the seeds as well as to mechanically-absorb the toxic outer seed coating powder created from the rock tumbler.

Might order soon, for experimentation. This one is made for cleaning fish tanks: granular activated carbon

Very cool. Please keep us posted with how the extract of "polished" seeds go, whether it makes for a cleaner, less "toxic" experience in terms of getting the LSA you want and not the other stuff that gives you discomfort. Do you tend to buy seeds in bulk online? Seems like you need quite a few for one experience and hardware stores often have relatively small packs of them.

Might work, but I have some doubts if that will offer any benefit over something even simpler, like sand. I reckon the coating powder should be fairly easy to rinse off most or all of the grinding powder anyway, so trying to adsorb it onto charcoal seems a bit superfluous to me. I also doubt if the grinding qualities of charcoal are so useful; it's a pretty soft material as far as I know.
