Hello All-

This is for the SLS Fuse 1/1+ community. Those of you that use vibratory tumbling for improved surface finish, would you mind sharing the media and detergent types and vendors that you use?

Form did a presentation not long ago about vibratory tumbling, but lacked in information on the specific types of media to use as a starting point. We know that this is very experimental based on part design and desired surface finish, so all we’re asking for is to help us outline a baseline that we can learn from.

We’ve recently acquired a few used [Burr King 15](https://www.burrking.com/catalog/p-100028/model-15-vibra-king-medium-bowls-combi-paks-1.3-cubic-feet) with speed controls.

I’ve also reached out to Formlabs, but I’d also like to hear from the community.

Thanks.
