Author Topic: Tumbler "Walking" Problems (Read 378 times)

Hey all,

I just got a new lyman autoflow tumbler, and can't keep it from walking all over. I tighten down every screw, and it stays put for a while, but after a couple minutes, it begins to walk. I checked the screws, and they were still tight. Any help would be great.

thanks,

Get a thin rubber pad to set it on!
That will also quiet things down a bit too!

I used a piece of old rubber carpet padding, free at the dumpster of every carpet installer. Correct on the quieting too.

I also agree with Chuck. A rubberized mat will stop the walking and cut down on the noise associated with the vibrations. The Lyman is an excellent tumbler. Best wishes.

An old carpet remnant or even an old car mat will do the trick too.
