Hi Jerry,

    Are you saying that I would use only the ground walnut shells as a
    tumbling medium?  or would you start with the coarser grits, work
    your way up and then use the walnut shells as a final polishing
    step? 

    I've never tumbled anything, so any advice is very much appreciated! 

Thanks!
