I probably would have tried using some stick on Velcro and strapped them to the inside of the tumbler. Hook side to the bowl and loop side around the bottles to secure them down. That would maximize the vibration transferred to the bottles I would think.

After 4 hrs. I pulled the bottles out. There was a layer of tiny bubbles at the top. Hopefully they did get mixed well.
Yeah, if it proves out to work, it'll be nice.
I currently have been using a frother, and keep thinking about the oxygen that is being pulled into the mix. This is cheap, as I already have the tumbler, so we'll see.

Would a couple bags of dried navy beans work???
Cheap and available at any grocery.
I have no idea, I'm just spit balling here. I have never owned or used a rock tumbler. Or maybe rice.

Ok, this is what I've ended up with. Doing 2 60ml bottles here. I get it all locked down, then fire it up, and forget about it for 4 - 5 hours.
I think I should do an up date on this, as I've found that this is not very good for mixing. I recently, as a test, mixed a 30ml bottle, 50/50 pg, and vg, then added a few drops of red food coloring. I left that in the tumbler for about 6 1/2 hours. I wish I had taken a pic of the result, but I didn't. The red coloring had barely begun to mix in the pg vg at the top of the bottle. For now it's back to warming, and shaking.

forgive my ignorance but I have never messed with a rock tumbler always wanted to but never got around to it but couldn't you ad a bit of hot water to it and for bottle protection, it looks like you have that under control so my idea when I started reading this is not needed.
