    OK, you convinced me. I bought one. Now I have some questions. 

    Do the pins need any special care? Like, do I need to keep them
    under solution like I do carbon steel shot? 

    The instructions say to store the bowl off the machine, but they
    don't say why. Anybody know why? Unless I have a reason I don't
    think I am going to remember. 

    If you are going to go for a complete tumbled finishing process,
    where does the magnetic tumbler fall in the sequence of things. It
    sure does not look like a final finish to me. It only takes a little
    Zam to make it look done, but what if I want to do everything with
    mass finishing? What first? What next? 

    I just bought the smallest Raytech machine, but if I like it I will
    get a bigger one. Thanks in advance for all your fine advice.
