Today I tumbled them and am = happy with the results to the cylinder walls. The bottom is pretty much = untouched though. There are a few dime size patches I need to clean off = from the bottom. Any Ideas? =20 My first thought was to elevate one side of the tumbler. I have since = forgot about that idea due to the weight of the tumbler. It has to be = around 2000 lbs if not more. I could break some of the rust loose with = a dentist tool on a long handle, but that won't do it as complete as I = would like. =20 I really don't want to fill the tank up too much with the pellets = because the cylinder gets so heavy and because I don't want to remove = any more from the walls....Just the bottom. =20 Suggestions appreciated.
