Vintage 1970s Sears Roebuck Rock Tumbler Tumbling Craft Kit Gems Jewelry 9-14151

Description

Up for offer is a Vintage 1970s Sears Roebuck Rock Tumbler Tumbling Craft Ki. Rocks to Gems to Jewelry #9-14151. This is a very nice near complete vintage set. Still has most of the Jewelry pieces that came with the originally and has box. The motor itself runs fine, very powerful and functions correctly. The tumbling unit has two issues that need to be addressed prior to use. 1. Right now it turns slow because the belt is stretched out enough that it slips.  And, 2, the rubber that hold the fan tight to the shaft is loose and fan moves about freely on the shaft. Both the belt and rubber on fan will need replacing for tumbler to work effectively. One of the bags hold some numbered polished rocks. Not sure this came with set, but including. And a small bag of rock polishing plastic pellets. 50% of more of the grit has been used to the best of my knowledge. One seems pretty full and other showing much less.
Great vintage item
