I'm about to that point too, although I toss random change into my clad jar once in awhile too - maybe not a great idea, as I'll have to sort it for tumbling later. I do, however, keep the cents out of the clad jar, so won't have that issue / need to sort out the pennies.

For the love of all that is holy, just buy a tumbler!
Do NOT go down the same path into madness as me!
Behold my abomination! A wind powered tumbler using old electric fan motors! And yes...that is a can of beef stew substituting for the drum. It was only as I watched that can endlessly spinning, the words BEEF STEW almost mocking me as it rattled around and around, that I realized that while I had won the battle, I had unfortunately lost my mind.

That is some Frankenstein sh^t! Looks like you hooked up a fan blade to push off of the fumes from the exhaust pipe from your truck. Which begs the question, did it work?

I had that project a long time ago when I was working. Took me a while to collect all the pieces to build a tumbler but finally it came together. Mine is chain drive.

Your dirty clad jar looks to be in a heck of a lot better shape than my salty sandy corroded clad jar.

Made as far as that can of beef stew...
Realized how crazy it looked and that I really couldn't control it since it relied on our usually breezy weather. It would just start up sitting there on the back of my truck. More of a concept idea....could I? Really should of asked, should I?
Wish I could load the video, it's mesmerizing watching that thing go!

Unfortunately no, if so, it might of actually proved itself useful. Lol
Were you trying to make a fan to cool yourself down while you tumble your coins?
