Got a new printer half price at coles, for much less than the price of ink cartridges for our old one. Decided to have a go at a tumbler project. Pulled out anything not needed, and cut the plastic to accomodate a tumbler container. It was setup so paper could roll across the rollers, and over the case plastic at the same time. That case plastic between the rollers needed to go, otherwise it wouldnt work. I used a nokia mobile phone charger to power the electric motor. Not much grunt in that motor, so its going to be a small tumbler. I havent got any tumbling media, but did a vid to show it turning a bottle full of vitamins.
