Can this media be used in an upright vibrating tumbler or is this media only good for barrel tumblers?

I've never tried since I own so many. I have a small commercial business and don't really keep track of that.

It can be used in the vibrating tumblers. Vibrating tumblers are larger than the small (look at Lortone 3 lb tumblers). You can tumble more product in each batch. For that, you'll need more grit. Check YouTube for informative videos from experienced 'tumblers'.

rotating tumblers. Check the infor that came with the vibrating tumbler, oftern these tumblers are for much "softer" material...brass and such, then you would use nut shell media

I think it would be too wimpy just bcs of the diameter of the barrel. It gets plenty hot! If your hair is ok with a 1/2", then it'll do fine! I discovered something quite by accident. After this on/off gave up the ghost, I somehow shook it and it came on! This has worked well ever sinse. Give it a shake like you're shaking down a thermometer.mb

I actually bought them for gifts & specifically bought the kind without an automatic shutoff so a drink would stay hot till they turned them off. I am told they keep a ceramic mug filled with coffee very hot. If your tumbler is not heat resistant... like plastic or even some glass, I would think this item would not be for you. If you want something that keeps a drink HOT, use a different drink container because this item works really well. Hope that helps.

I really don't think that this would be a good bore cleaner. It is basically a protective lubricant and might end up causing some accuracy problems. I must admit not only have I not tried to use it as a bore cleaner I never gave it any thought. There are so many good products out there why bother. As a cleaner and protectant for the inner mechanisms of my weapons I really like it.

I used Corn Cob tumbling media for brass pistol casings. I would think it would work for coins as well. I have Corn Cob media and Walnut Media for sale at benchmarkreloadingsupply.com

I hope that you enjoy the tumbler. I purchased mine a month ago (?). I have been using my tumbler to polish silver, steel, and copper jewelry that I make. I have been using stainless steel shot, water, and a bit of dishwashing liquid. I have only been using one of the barrels so far.

Yeah. Kust keep shaking the mix, in order to avoid leaving sediments in the end. I have used it with GNC's Lean Shakes.

That's hard to say since the tumbler is mostly a brass casing cleaner. I guess if the tool was no longer than a 1" wrench and no wider than 4x4 inches it might be fine. Also depends on the media.

From what I have gathered for information regarding the use of lubricants in break barrel rifles, care must be taken when utilizing lubricants in the air chamber (this is where the compressed air is generated and stored until the rifle is shot) and in the area of the breech where the projectile is is placed in the weapon and discharged (shot). From the name listed by this manufacturer "RMCOIL Silicone Chamber oil" this lubricant is used sparingly in the gun's Spring Air Chamber (one or two drops every 500 shots or so). Some "Chamber Oil" manufacturer's supply a special long tube applicator where you would place this applicator down into the spring chamber area and place the two drops directly into the "Air Chamber." As far as utilizing Hoppe's Gun cleaning solution to clean your barrel, this is not recommended by some manufacturer's. By using this cleaning solution you could cause "dieseling" to occur in the pellet chamber and barrel, as the solution residue left after cleaning the barrel, can and will ignite (think small explosion) due to the instantaneous high pressures and temperatures during discharge of the compressed air from the gun's "air chamber." This dieseling should only occur for a short time after you clean your weapon, as the oil residue is burned off. But the dieseling is really a small explosion inside the barrel during it's firing. It may not cause any damage to you or your weapon, but to be safe the manufacturer's certainly do not recommend it. As far as normal lubrication of your weapon (read other than inside the chamber/barrel), you can safely use any lubricating oil that is made for and used for this type of service to protect and lubricate all other weaponry.

No. You have to decide what kind of media you need for your application. I use it for tumbling brass and it is great. I use the stainless steel pins and you have to be careful not to run it too long, it'll take the brass finish off.

Yes. I have never used it for that but it says it can be used for clay lubricant on the side of the jug.

They recommend you don't keep the fluid in it for extended periods on time... So I drain mine after several uses... The solution is usually dirty by then anyway. I will say it doesn't get the primer pockets as clean as I want. Kind of wish I got a tumbler that uses media.

The dbl wall tumblers work well as long as you start out with an iced or very cold drink. My only issue is that the dbl wall tumble doesn't fit my car drink holder unless I "help" it. Really like being able to put the whole thing in the dishwasher. Note: there are 2 different sizes.

The Tumbler works great with all types of casing...,being .223 is one of the smaller rifle casing you will still have that issue...But fewer casing...I do combination water formula with hand full of zinc plated BBs,then cob to really polish the cases if even needed...check U-tube for some great videos on the subject...!!!

I wouldn't use the Hoppes oil in this kit to lubricate a 747. It's good for cleaning the barrel, but could ruin the seals. Daisy recommends a non detergent 20 weight, and two recommendations I've seen are 3-in-1 SAE 20 motor oil #3MO2011 in the blue and white label(this is different from the standard 3-in-1 multi purpose oil in the black and white label) and Crosman Pellgun oil. If you still have questions you can call Daisy at 800-713-2479

I have only used granular for both baking and hot/cold drinks. I have been satified with the results.I have a suggestion you may want to try. You could use the granular in a small grinder ( a bullet or coffee grinder) and that way you could try the consistency of both types.Hope this helps! :-)
