I got the cheap tumbler from Harbor Freight and it came with media like this.  My question is this; is the media in the link a good price or are there sources out there that I just can't find?
I have seen people use the lizard stuff but that stuff is like $9 for 5lbs.  

Oh and the stuff that came with it works awesome.  Cases look brand new in no more than an hour of tumbling.

looks good to me. I bought a bunch off a guy on the EE for pretty cheap but I don't remember how cheap. generally I try to shop the EE to help people out unless I know the price is a real burn but that's just me.

I get twice that for the same price. 12/20 mesh. Find a blasting media supplier in your area, they probably have it in 50lb. bags.


ETA: I see you are in Texas. I get mine from Clemtex, they are in Corpus Christi, Dallas, and Houston.

Thanks, I've called everyone I could in Denton and haven't had any luck.  I found one guy that does soda blasting in Argyle that might sell me a bit... I don't really have a place for a 50# bag though.  I may find that guy on the EE and get a bit from him.
