My first tumbler was built from a lawnmower my dad discarded when I was around 11 years old. I buried it in the forest and topped up the gas whenever I had time. It really did not work at all.

- zahlman 1y agoWhat does that have to do with attempts at DIY rock tumblers?
- clort 1y agothe lawnmower is the link
- DonHopkins 1y ago...You need to think of Larry Ellison the way you think of a lawnmower.
- zahlman 1y ago... and your thinking is that because someone else mentioned a lawnmower, you should bring up that meme about Ellison, even though it's clearly nothing to do with the OP?
- DonHopkins 1y agoYes, the first thing that pops into my head whenever anyone mentions lawnmowers is Larry Ellison, and the other way around too. Just like couches and JD Vance.
