Snag, you generally WON'T need to adjust the speed for different-sized
drums (jar, actually, in the parlance) if you plan the speed to about
'center' on the correct speed for a middle-sized jar.

If you run the calcs for different sizes, you'll see that you can make
fairly wide excursions in size, and still maintaining an acceptable
speed.

This just gets better and better . Thanks Lloyd !
The yard sale was a fundraiser for a missionary-type group , I only paid 10
bucks for this tumbler base . Motor's worth more than that and it has saved
me a good bit of fabrication .
