I have an old dryer that i would like to convert to a tumbler, i have disconnected the heating element and would like to know if there is anything else i need to do to it. Also any tips in using this tumbler would be a great help too.

Hello Roy!

Check out Rinehart Taxidermy. If you but so many pounds of saw dust from them they send you free instructions on how to convert an old dryer into a tumbler. Or you can just buy then instructions from them for about 3 bucks! Hope this helps, Andy.

you need to tape the holes in the back of the drum.try using the silver duct tape(not grey) that is used in air conditioning. you also need to rewire your plug an electric dryer is 220 volts110 for element and 110 for for drum.I picked up a gas dryer the plug was already 110.good luck.

P.S. you do not have to tumble your birds Patrick rummans doesnt and we know how good his turns out.so try it with out less mess less trouble.
