    The best way it was explained to me was, think of a wave inside the tire and it needs to fall on its base not the empty spot. that's what your looking for.
    if you start getting chips and cracks just slow down the barrel speed and if you want really high quality use a small dremel type grinder to remove chips dings ext.. cracks are bad and will end up...cracking lol
    this is a sealed system so i need to remove the lid once a day to release gases built up. the tire should be fine seen several of those type of machines that tumble larger stones .
    If you get stuck try local rock clubs (?), they may even have a machine you can use.
    I thank you for your input. I WILL try a little rock and glass tumbling later this year as it is possible within my plan as I need to move all the containers of glass and rocks to a central area in the yard. I made BIG progress last year around the yard right up till the winter said it was break time.

    I'm actually EXCITED to get out in the yard when the weather is nice and agreeable. I also have some helpers lined up for a bit of help and company.



    Will see where it all goes and ends.
