Hey guys got an interesting product test today this is the frankfort arsenal brass cleaning solution so i just ran. Out of lemme shine that i was using to clean my brass and this is the last batch that i did with that it works pretty well it's let me shine appliance. Cleaner plus a couple drops of liquid soap like youtube and the internet. Recommends but yeah I'm curious to see. How this compares so I've got another bowl of dirty nine millimeter brass I'm gonna run it for two and a half hours the directions on this say to use distilled water I'm to keep to go out. And buy distilled water so i did run all of this water through the filter on my refrigerator so I'm gonna use that i measured it off to exactly 80 ounces at. The line here and to that I'm going to add two ounces of the liquid which I'm. Going to measure with three ounce cups. I'm gonna say that's about two ounces so. It's half an ounce for every 20 fluid ounces so that should be the correct. Amount. All right so here is the final result i. Have my opinion I'm curious to know what. Do you guys think i can clearly see a. Difference between these two hopefully. The camera will pick it up but i don't. No post a comment down below which do you think is the better looking brass. Have a good one thanks for watching.

Hey thanks for stopping by and checking out this video today we're taking a look at the frankfort arsenal tumbler and i. Gotta say this thing is impressive but this is not going to be a long time review i recently got this about two weeks ago so this is really like a first time use and comparison with what i. Started with which was this rock tumbler. Over here so you know you buy cheap you. Bag twice and i only started reloading about six months ago so this is my little champ and this did a lot of rounds but look at the damage to me having to pry open the lid and it's. Really it's not made for brass you know it's made for kids and rocks so does it. Work yeah it worked really well and it still works just fine so hers right. Along it can rumble off the table so I'm. Gonna test that today and see if this one will do the same thing now this was. A scratch and dent open box model from. Amazon so i got it for about 30 bucks off and was a little disappointed. Because it was the first warehouse deal. I got from amazon that was actually missing parts and so i contacted amazon said hey they're supposed to be steel. Pins in there, and they refunded me 40 bucks and was able to pick up some of. This that goes with it so overall i like. The fact that it has a timer that'll shut off automatically know this thing. Let's do a side-by-side sound comparison. First what we're getting into this i used to have in the house and my wife was like what is that. And it's really not that loud let's turn. On this one that's a lot louder. Quite the difference there but it doesn't matter out here because I've got the air conditioner running to dehumidifier running and all that stuff so the biggest thing about this is big. It is huge and definitely made for the. Task of cleaning brass so really like in. The big bold construction of this i mean. It just feels like it's gonna last forever nice grippy rubber inside of. Here and just the capacity alone i got a. Backup in camera to get this thing in frame the maximum capacity i could do in. The rock tumbler i was i could do little over actually about a 100 45 acp and it. Was really crowded so actually couldn't even do this batch by itself i had to this is the last thing i washed in that. So today we're going to oh and i weighed. This and did the math on it this is over a thousand cases of nine-millimeter we. Were just gonna dump that in and see how. It goes. Wow and oh i can't believe that there is. Plenty of room to spare with about 1,100. Of those in there so for a cleaner i. Started using this lemme shine mixed. With a couple drops of dish soap that. Works except for when this goes in the. Water it starts to fizz and bubble it can build up pressure so you have to let. It sits for a while so I'm just going to. Go ahead and dump in this whole thing. Pigs and they came with a free sample of. This detergent so I'm just going to use this whole thing and see how it works on. This it looks like kind of the same material as the let me shine. And these pins are great and i like that. This has a way to rinse it out when. You're done you can just dump it out. Water might actually need more water. That looks pretty good so nice mix and i. Just like to throw in just a little bit of dish soap so you don't know if that. Soap is going to fizz it all it doesn't. Look like it is so I'm just going to go. Ahead and seal this up and for fun we. Want to see what it looks like actually inside of it while it's running, so we're gonna throw a go pro in there and see. What it looks like on the inside good luck little go pro miss you. Let me go ahead mark on the feet anthony. Looks at all. Well i don't have a better solution all. Right it's getting dark out so I'm just gonna let this dry in the driveway well. It's not the shiniest grass in the world but it works i might run it again with. The different cleaners and this media magnate certainly helps out to remove. Any remaining pins so thanks as always. For watching have a great day.

For years i used the tried-and-true. Method of the cookie sheet in the oven. To dry my cases after wet tumbling and. This works well i really had no problems. With it other than sometimes with. Bottleneck cases i would end up with a little water down the bottom here. Wouldn't come out because of the bottleneck and after drying in the oven. It would the inside of the case was still damp which of course causes a problem when i put powder in it so I'd. Have to you know make sure that i got all the water out before i put in the cookie sheet and it worked well for. Me for several years a while back i had. A brilliant idea i thought well if i had. A plate that i could attach screws to. And put the cases on it face down that. Would allow the water to run out and dry. Then at the same time so he made me a. Couple of these plates with number eight holes in them even father coated it. Hornady red for me which i thought was kind of nice having and what i do with. These as i put some number eight screws. On the in each of the holes here and i. Just put my cases on like that so if. They're facing down the water would run out and now that actually worked quite a. But better i didn't have the problem. With you know water getting. Stuck in bottleneck cases and having the insides still dance after i. Did the drying the problem with. Using the oven of course is the energy consumption i use a lot of power. My electric bill on months when I'm. Doing a lot of a lot of cases was. Noticeably higher so i decided I'd break. Down and pick up a case dryer so this is. The frankfort arsenal brass dryer it. Hold about a thousand two twenty-three cases about two thousand a nine. Millimeter i believe it is and basically it consists of the top unit which has. The heater and the fan unit in it and. Then below that are a series of plates. That's the whole be the brass there's. Five of them so there're five levels but you can load brass and then of course. Down at the bottom this base unit which will catch any water and whatnot that. May drop down three days from the cases. Works pretty well I've only used it a. Couple times at this point but it does. Actually work quite well and the power. Consumption is quite a bit less than using my oven the problem with my plate. Idea that i had was i can only do a few. A Hundred cases at a time and even though i only had them in their fifteen or twenty minutes I'd still you know for a. A Thousand cases it would still take me an hour or so to get them all dry the. Frankfort arsenal i run for about an. Hour and it dries the case is just as. Well with quite a bit lower power consumption it's got an adjustment to. Heat adjustment at the top here so i can. You know just to eat between 95 and 155. Degrees the increments they have on here. A little weird it starts at 95 and then goes to 106 to. 115 to 120 6 to 136 144 and then 155 i. Thought that was a little odd you know normally it's in you know tens or fives but for whatever reason they have been in. Kind of unusual temperature increments. It's got a three-foot cord on it which. Is one of my pet peeves about it the. Other major thing that i really don't like about it is there's no on/off switch I'd like to be able to just plug. It in and turn it on and off with a. Switch and the fact it's only got a three-foot cord means i have to kind of be close to my power outlet in order to. Use it so a minor issue the way i set up. My bench it doesn't do't work quiet. As well as i would have hoped but it. Does work pretty well the blower in the. Middle here notice the plates here have. A hole in the middle and that runs all the way down through the center of the. Unit so the blower will blow the air the hot air down and go all the way to the bottom and then the air gets to plate the base at the bottom and kind of comes. Back up so it keeps an airflow going all. The way around the unit to help with the. Drying process now one of these coming. Out with one for 2016 it's a new product. And I'll probably pick it up as well and. I am one day loader after all and i do. Have a little bit of brand loyalty but. Frankford arsenal looked a little bit better as far as only has three levels. And I'm not sure that it'll drive it dries. As much brass at the frankfort arsenal also i had the frankfort arsenal wet tumbler i had the frankfort arsenal. Media separator so i thought I'd make it a match set basically you know all. Frankfort arsenal equipment does work. Well like i said i want to use it a few times but it gets the cases dry does its. Job and really that's all i can say. About it that's all for this video i. Hope you liked it you so please click the like button maybe even subscribe to my channel thanks for. Watching and happy reloading.

Peer reviews are always a popular topic. On the gun channels here on youtube but. Normally people are reviewing gear which they just recently got and it's. Basically show and tell for the most part and that's fine and dandy but occasionally it's nice to see a review of a product which someone has head for quite a while and that's what this is going to be I'm going to do a little review of this tumblers tumbler ultra. Vibe 18 cartridge case vibratory cleaner and I've owned this for at least 15. Years and actually i purchased this unit. Secondhand so I'm really not sure how old it is it could be as old as 25 years. Old for all i know i believe they've been making these tumblers for about 30. Years so i think I'm pretty well-versed. With this product to be able to speak on it now this is a vibratory case cleaner. As i mentioned and it's very heavy-duty. Construction now there's a lot of. Different case tumblers on the market, and they vary in price quite considerably, and they also vary in their construction and quality quite a bit and I've seen some of the cheaper tumblers. That are out there, and they're quite lightly built and of course the prices. Are quite cheap compared to this one these sell for about a hundred and. Eighty to two hundred dollars depending upon where you purchase them but i think. That's money that's very well spent because I've used this extensively for. As i said about 15 years or so and it saw us before i got it and it has never. Given me any problems at all so that's money that is you know well. Well spent i think i paid $100 for this. Secondhand which at the time seemed like a bit more than you know might have been. Justified but I'm quite happy that i spent that money back then because like i said its given me all those years of service so let's have a closer look at. This machine it's got a capacity of. About a gallon and a half is gallons. Which is 6 pounds of tumbling media they. Rated four and a total capacity of. Eighteen pounds with media and the brass. Added to it and that equates to somewhere between 200 and 700 cartridges. Cases depending upon of course the caliber and the size of cases i would. Probably refrain from putting too. Much in it because it does tend to slow down the cleaning action a little bit but i routinely tumble up to 500. Nine-millimeter cases in it without any particular problem at all know this is of course this is the ultra vibe 18 there. Are a couple of other tumblers in their vibratory cleaning range which are on. Each side of the case capacity wise. There's the model 10 which is smaller of. Course and the model 45 which is larger this is a nice size with a fairly decent. Capacity for cleaning now this unit as well. Has some features that motor is a. Thermally protected ball bearing motor. One thirtieth of a horsepower and it. Seems to run fairly quietly oh get the. Camera set up a little better here we'll have a closer look at some of the features of this tumbler okay the top of. The tumbler is held on with a wing nut on top of this threaded rod remove the. Wing nut take the top off there's a washer below that the washer has a. Backing on it a rubber backing on it and. One thing you'll notice right away when you compare this to most of the other tumblers which are cheaper is how heavy everything is on it quite a substantial. Piece of plastic for a lid and it's as well. Lined inside with a rubber liner to keep noise to a minimum which is a nice feature some of the cheaper tumblers do not have that type of feature they have a very thin plastic lid also the. Thickness of the polyethylene bowl quite a bit more substantial than a lot of those cheaper brands of tumbler now if. We look inside the machine here a little. Closer up here this one a little bit. There you can see that the bowl is held on by this once again by this threaded rod this runs down to the motor and the. Bowl can be removed if you needed to replace it for some reason or another some people will use have a couple of. These bowls though use one for liquid case cleaning and one. For dry case cleaning I've only ever had experience using the dry case cleaning method I'll just turn the machine on here you can see the action of it when it's running you can see the media roles. Around in a kind of cyclonic effect. Comes up from the outside rolls over and. Goes towards the center and carries the cartridge cases with it i got some nine-millimeter in here at the moment being clean and if you overload these. Machines they do not clean the brass but. As quickly so it's best to make sure that you don't put too much in them you want to make sure that there's that rotation of the media inside there to get a good effect. One thing about these machines is there's no on/off switch on them they start immediately when you plug them into the wall so one thing that i like to do is to use an appliance timer like. This is kind of like the lamp timers except it's got a little bit bigger rating and you've got a rating on. The back here that tells you the capacity that this timer will handle you. Want to buy one of these timers which will handle the rating of the motor so i. Basically like to plug the machine into one of these timers and then i can set. The timer up to run when I'm not around so now the list of the machine run although it's not really all that loud but it might as well run while I'm not here listening to it and then you can run it for whatever number hours you'd like to run it for so that's a one thing. That some of the other machines do have a switch on the cord really no big deal. One way or the other in my opinion whether they have that feature or not some people would like that i guess if you're setting these machines up in a place where it's hard to access the wall socket it's nice. To have the switch on the cord you could always put a switch on these cords if you really needed that feature moving down on the tumbler you'll see that it's mounted on top of this the bowl here is mounted on top of this metal stamping and between the metal base plate i guess. You'd call it and the bowl there is a. Foam rubber piece which is sandwiched in. Here that's to hold everything good and firmly and below that the whole thing is. Sitting on top of these springs a little. Closer there with the zoom so the whole. Think sits on top of these springs, and they are in turn on top of rubber like a. Rubber bushing inside that there's the. Rubber bushing underneath there so that. All keeps the vibration from moving down to the surface that you have the tumbler. Sitting on top of will go back out here. A little bit further and you can see that the base itself here is a steel. Stamping and the feet are rubber. Bought and they have a steel screw. Holding those in place so all in all. Really very robust construction and. We'll flip it over here a little bit. That's the cobwebs under there should clean that up before i turn the camera. On and there's the motor underneath so. The motor is a pretty decent-sized motor. For this type of application quite a bit. Bigger than you'll find on some of the smaller capacity cheap tumblers you can. See this is the weight which is clamped to the shaft that is actually what gives you the vibrating motion that that weight is clamped on and that makes the whole thing on ballast which when it spins gives you the shaking action and these are supposed to vibrate at about. 3,000 vibratory cycles per minute so see. If we can look at the can look at the. Motor tag there and it is osco. Industrial incorporated 115 volts. Thermally protected sealed ball bearing. So given lots of good service so far so. There you have it that's my review of my tumblers tumbler ultra vibe a product which is manufactured in the. United states and which has been manufactured there for about 30 years so. A really good reliable product if you're in the market for a cartridge case cleaner for reloading purposes i can. Highly recommend this product and i. Think if you get one you'll be quite happy with it talk to you later guys.

Hey guys going to be cleanin some brass. Today at my lyman turbo 1200 total flow. Tumbler here thought I'd give a little. Overview of it in case anybody's. Interested in buying one of these it has. A pretty tight-fitting lid you don't get. A lot of dust when you're tumbling and. You can see its kind of like spring-loaded the unique thing about this one. Is versus a lot of the other ones on the. Market has this plug you can take out and when it's running a lot media will. Fall out that hole and it comes with a. Pan so you stick your pan under there it. Drains all the media at that time it's. Going to make it kind of dusty then so. You may want to do this in a garage or. Outside or the basement area where your. Kids aren't going to be because a lead content and always wear gloves whenever. I'm working with dirty brass so this. Came with three bags of this media i. Haven't actually tried this media yet I've been using his first walnut shells. I got from a pet store so kind of finely. Crushed walnut shell that's been working. Out I'm ready for a media change. I've probably cleaned approximately i. Don't know a couple thousand bret maybe. More than that three four thousand breast cases. Pistol rounds and before i had to change. The media also i like to put a few drops of this new finished car polish in there. That puts a little waxy finish it. Polishes the case but it also puts a. Little like wax onto the brass and it. Makes resizing easier it hasn't caused. Any trouble I've never had any miss. Fighters on any of the rounds I've shot. Plenty any of my reloads so give you a. Look inside here well that works the way. You can train your media it has like a bowl inside a bowl there's a wing nut. Here that holds a the two together so. That's basically it I'll load this up and I'll get a shot of. That way guys i got to load it up with a couple hundred brass cases just so wrong. So i got some 380 so 357 magnums and some. Nine-millimeter in there another good. Think about this lyman tumbler that's. Right there it's made in usa i did a. Little research before i bought this one. And i heard of some people buying some. Imported ones, and they weren't so good and tumbled a brasserie gotten it in. Last very long so i think you can't go wrong when you buy something made in usa like this so i ended up putting in about. I put in to the bags in there and I'll. Turn the tumbler around take a look at the action. I'll let that go for about an hour -. With walnut' media that I've used in the. Past i let that go about two hours and. That was that real good what i usually. Do all this control. We finished our polish on a couple of. Drips. That'll work itself of them. I was like yeah to the dust on. This wing nut sort of thing is made out. Of rubber so it doesn't loosen up for the vibrations also this has rubber feet. On the bottom so it doesn't skip around. On your counter top or wherever you have it located but it's not a bad idea get a. To get a rubber mat like this put it. Down sir that's a vibrator on him all. Right so come back in a couple hours and. We'll take a look at that grass and see. All nice and shiny there all right it's been about two hours or so and the brass. Is looking pretty good nice and clean so. I'm going to empty out no take this plug. Out and turn it on put the hood back on. So i don't get a lot of us. Once sadder media's i really know you. Tell me want to put some here in perfection in a little bit this points. What I'll do is I'll I'll take the lid. Off you got probably like 90% of the. Media out of there now and basically. It's just your brass but you still have media inside the brass so what you have. To do is turn it on. Yeah. All right guys it is the finished. Product this time i use the media that came with. Alignment tumbler and previously I've. Been using the katie walnut pepper. Letter i notice the brass is coming out. A little lighter with the lyman. Media i think that's going to make a difference but cl yeah this looks a. Little more yellow the brass something. Like lois i don't think it makes a difference but yeah I'd recommend the. Alignment brand if you're going to get a tumbler seems to be had been real. Reliable for me I've had it about two years had no problems with it you know. In about two hours your brass is done if. You want to save a little money I'd recommend getting some of this walnut crushed walnut shells works good. Alright take care.

Hello today I'm going to be polishing. Some brass with my brand-new lyman turbo. 1200 tumbler and i got some media. This is the doughnut it's made from. Crushed load walnut shells we're going. To take that and put some medium through. The bowl put it about half full and i. Started i got a bunch of brats either saving over the years and I'm. Going to do some on 45 this is just some. Pretty rough-looking brass then. Put lid on and take this down till. That's a slight bulge in the middle. There we go little bulb, and we'll plug it in at my. Power cord here. Sound right and i started that quarter after 6:00 I'm gonna let it run for about two or three hours and check. Okay well i fell asleep and didn't get. That gonna check on this so it ran now. Uh three and a half hours later so let's. Just see how it looks after three halves. Hours there we go looks great before and. After a couple of uh we better see the. Difference there you go bottom row the. Top row isn't that his polish and these. Are the range breath is these are three. Hours like kid runs do it's just corn. Cob and do a final polish on but nice. And smooth and clean off right now so. The next step would be a corn plain corn cob as opposed just the walnut here well. I got to sort him out and put in a next. Container and start another batch thanks for watching well they had they've been. Polished now they've tumbled for about three and a half hours and I'm gonna. Just try to dump them off you this. Filters up the cover sister. Probably a better way done. If i had a round container and then he. Had out of a gallon bucket with it i. Could just stick that lid in on a bucket. And then do it that way so if i get my. Wife here hold that one hand so this would fall. I had to make a better way of doing this. The litter you just roll it and tumble it through but let's just grab me a. Dollar if you can I'm not done okay. Start now it's recording okay so I'm. Done here I've poured everything out of here and i kind of shifted it through the lid and i. Made a little bit of a mess you can see. The video and here's the finish brass. This is 45 acp and that's filmed under. Led lighting by the way under my workbench so looks pretty good I'm on. Throw this back into the tumbler. And throwing the rest of my. Brass and 45 does that sort it out let. That run then yeah. I collect trash over the years there's a. Pile of three uh nine-millimeter i got. And 40 smith & wesson. Eventually I'll be shipping off those. There's another bucket of brass i cap mm. So it's funny i see the 45s almost. Always have a 9 millimeter mm and every. Every 45 leva 11 9 millimeter sits inside of it so. When i looked at writing with wonder which well thanks a lot, and we'll talk. To you later.

On and there's the motor underneath so. The motor is a pretty decent-sized motor. For this type of application quite a bit. Bigger than you'll find on some of the smaller capacity cheap tumblers you can. See this is the weight which is clamped to the shaft that is actually what gives you the vibrating motion that that weight is clamped on and that makes the whole thing on ballast which when it spins gives you the shaking action and these are supposed to vibrate at about. 3,000 vibratory cycles per minute so see. If we can look at the can look at the. Motor tag there and it is osco. Industrial incorporated 115 volts. Thermally protected sealed ball bearing. So given lots of good service so far so. There you have it that's my review of my tumblers tumbler ultra vibe a product which is manufactured in the. United states and which has been manufactured there for about 30 years so. A really good reliable product if you're in the market for a cartridge case cleaner for reloading purposes i can. Highly recommend this product and i. Think if you get one you'll be quite happy with it talk to you later guys.

Hado my name is Courtney watching hammer heart outdoors for today's video i picked up a lineman turbo sonic cleaner. If you hear something that sounds like a little gremlin behind me it's my daughter running around what's up yeah. Anyway um i wanted to pick one of these. Up for a little while but mostly just using a rcbs media tumbler for brass cleaning but the. Nice part about this is i can use this one clean other metal stuff like you. No gun components and stuff like that alright so i picked up two things. There's a basically two types of solution ones usually for like metal like the steel gun parts and then. There's another different one for brass. Right now I'm just going to be taking apart a couple bolt carrier groups for our ars and throwing them in there and seeing how well they do or how well it. Goes cleaning them. All right so this power cable the top a. Little plastic basket and stuff and then the inside essentially just like a. Little metal thing that basically heats up the water solution stuff to clean the metal parts off. Nothing really cosmic at all i mean it. Looks pretty simple a setup and everything like that I'm gonna go get those bolt carriers and throw them into here and see how well. This thing does leave him alone remember i told you he's the mean one it's gonna bite you again. Yeah all right so this is the bolt. Carrier I'm just gonna pull it all apart to throw it all in their i read. Somewhere that and the only thing i was kind of batman this bolt is dirty i. Really only thing i shot a couple. A Hundred rounds to this thing but the. Firing pins all greased up notice like. With this newer bolts especially these bcm bolts like just working in a little. Bit and stuff, and they just seem to operate a lot better yeah this one's definitely pretty gummed up this would take a decent amount of time to clean if i was just doing it by hand but anyway. Like i was saying it mentioned some. People say that this little spring on the inside of the extractor can get broke i guess so i might just leave the. Extractor out of it and just clean that by hand and everything else should be good I'm just trying to think if there's any other plastic parts or i sometimes know extractors will have a little. Like a little rubber grommet and there. And stuff i don't know if it's safe to run that through their i personally just either pull the thing off or just clean. It by hand all right so on the back it's. Got the va's cleaning solution it's got basically the measurements so for light. Duty 1/2 balance to 20 ounces of distilled water 4:41 ratio i want to say this is for. Medium to heavy-duty just because it seems pretty dirty to put one out. To 20 ounces of water so I'm using. Distilled water it mentions that you use regular water but there's this what. Exactly it says tap water can be used however distilled water will improve cleaning action and reduced. Water spots from drying. All right got everything in their i. Didn't put the extractor pin or the. Little retainer pin for the firing pin. In there just because it says about not putting the or having anything i need the parts come in contact with the actual the base of the august the. Heating element but anyway see set 180 seconds for. What's at 8 minutes or i try this. All right so you actually have to turn on the heater separate apparently it's. Supposed to make this buzzing noise are. You went someone needs a diaper change where you gone hey gotcha. Alright so i ran through an eight minutes cycle I'm just gonna kind of pull it out i use the heater just probably uh turn the heater off i think. It only gets up to about 150 degrees and. Be careful pulling it out then 100% sure. How caustic this stuff is so i just put some gloves on the bolt face is still a. Little dirty but right around here where. The bolt really gets a lot of carbon buildup is pretty much like completely. Clean so usually after you shoot and stuff that the whole thing gets pretty dirty i mean that's there just a tiny bit of dirt on the paper towel the inside of. The bolt where basically this part comes. In contact that usually gets pretty dirty toots there's still a little bit. Of keto fits the edges geez the thing is. Like almost completely cleaned off this. Is actually pretty awesome surprise it actually took me this long to pick one of these things up just the ability to. Kind of get this whole like you know all the internal parts of the bolt not. Necessarily the internal parts just the parts that are really hard to get to and it's just really clean anyway the. Only other thing is the reason i went with alignment i normally don't go with one just because I've had some just bad. Luck with their dies and stuff i just think their guys are pretty england just garbage so usually stick with our cbs or hornet. Ii or higher quality reloading stuff but. I like this i like the fact that you just throw the bolt carrier group in a combo swisher you just take the whole turd throw it in there but i don't think you. Can use these things for like plastic parts and stuff like that so anyway hope. You guys like this video don't forget to hit subscribe.

Cuz I've been running this tumblr well. I've owned the tumblr now for a little over two years and when i use it. Ranges anywhere between two and four i have ranted eight and a couple of times. Total of twenty-four hours the features. That i like about it first and foremost. I reload in my basement until i get a. Building I'm stuck here in my basement. Quietness this is really quiet on. The initial start up until the brass. Feels with media it's a little bit loud. But once it settles you cannot hear it. Run at all so i can set it and forget it and it's great number two quantity i. Wanted a tumblr that i would not have to. Upgrade to in the future i knew getting. Into reloading that i would accumulate. Tons of brass i didn't want a small. Tumblr that would only do a small amount. And extend my polishing time and end up. Either buying a second one or buying a bigger one so right off the bat i got. The largest one i could get i could afford and this one's on this one was on sale for i believe $65 midway usa it is. Made in the usa it is made by the lyman. Products corporation out of middletown. Connecticut this will hold I'm going off. Memory here about a thousand nine. Millimeter cases quite a few hundred 800. 945 you know 40s crap load of 220 threes. I never really counted but any rate. Let's talk more about the tumbler now. The bowl here the opening measures nine. And a half inches the widest point. The inside from here to here i probably. Won't be an exact measure yet, but we'll work with it 11 and a half inches and. Then the depth of it we're looking five. And a half inches deep it's a really. Great sized bowl it's made of great hard. Plastic and like i said i've run this. Numerous of time 24 hours i could touch. That here never felt hot there's no. Signs of any type of bubbling or anything like that it does come with the. Lid which sits on top washer and a. Wingnut just like any other tumblr the. Overall height of this from base to the. Top of the lid we're going to go with at. About 13 and a half inches tall and these are guesstimates you know i really. Can't get the ruler up next to it you might be able to check out the specs on the website so that equates to quite a. Bit of media now let's talk about media. When i put media into my tumblr along. The edge of the bowl here let me back this up little bit okay you see this ridge like on a globe it's you know be. Like the equator basically it's where the top and the bottom of the half a top-half bottom half of the ball meets. Also the top right here this is the kind. This is top of the kind where the wing nut is its about the same height as. Inside a half of the book so i feel my. Media up just about to the line. To you know where the top part of the. Comb still shows i had a forum member /. 280g reloading calm please check it out joins it if you like it we try to help. Everybody out and you know friendly group of people, but he was asking he. Just got a tumblr i believe it was the don't quote me I'm going off top of my head midway model 1297 so it's a bit. Smaller but it should be fine for what. He's doing he's just starting out right now, and he got a good deal on it so at. Any rate fill your media up about the. Some distance and you should be good to. Go now the media that i use i don't. Spend the big bucks on lyman brand i. No they're good and I've got friends that use them and I'm not saying anything bad about them I'm on a budget i work with the budget so i go to. Outsmart and two years ago into petsmart. Bought a huge bag of crushed walnut. Which is what you're buying when you buy. Up like lyman brand or midway brand. Media they're all crushed walnut i get. This back in the lizard betty section it. Comes untreated but you get a huge. Bag flight 19 bucks like said about two. Years ago and i haven't even begun to run out and you can treat it at home and. I'll talk to you a little bit about treating it too but that's what that is. Fine crushed walnut now word of caution. No I'm not wearing gloves I've got to. Sink right outside that once i get done. I go wash my hands i don't eat or drink while I'm doing any of this when you're. Cleaning brass there are contaminants. That comes out of your primer pockets the primer that's in it of the mixture. And stuff that's ignited there's a. Little of lead exposure saying that there's. Also a bit of a dust pick up what i usually do is when I'm ready to dump. This i go over next to my window with. The fan blowing so that the dust particle goes up and out the window with the fan so you do want to have some exhaust for my larger amount i just. Store it in this cat litter box this is. The same walnut' media except this is. Untreated i didn't have a need to treat. This one yet as you see i still got a. Good size so if ever run out what's. In my tumblr and the two cans i can move. On to this like i said it's going to last your life well pretty down dag on. Close to the lifetime now treating the. Media what i do is a don't don't get any. Kind of polish that's got ammonia in it. Ammonia will hurt your brass so what i. Do is I'll take whatever container that. I'm going to be storing it in so let's say I'm gonna store it in this bucket i use wicked metal polish you get them up. Most flying j truck stops you can use mother's there's you can use fits it's. Got money in it put a couple drops in. It covers it up let it air out for a couple of days lets the money evaporate. But with a wicked metal polish it will. Last you a long time to squeeze the bottle one two three drops maybe about. Three dime size drops cover it up mix it. Up real good shake your bucket. Then it's ready to go it's that simple. It's no rocket science or else i can't. Do it any rate i got a big folder can. I've got a mixture of 270 brass and 6.5. Grendel brass and there's quite a bit in. There i just dumped almir ok put the lid. On washer wingnut you don't want to over. Tighten this he'll crack the lid but you do want to get to somewhat tight so it's not rivaling i just go by feel now like. I said you hear this it's going to be a. Little bit loud to begin with once the. Cases fill up you'll notice you'll get. Quite so let me go ahead and plug it in. Ok now right there. It's moving together the cases are. Filling up I've not changed my voice allowing us in any way now it's at its. Prime it's just going to sit there and. That's a lot it's going to get during the whole tumble section session. So before i and let me show you what i. Used to sift my brass with okay get in a. Walmart it's just a plastic bucket made. In china so you know they got to good. Use one I've got. Colander that i drilled the holes a. Little bit bigger a couple more brides. Trying to fill up that the media will fall through but not the brass I've got. Two holes couple of bolts mountains. Mounted to it i picture tumblr up for it. In here the media falls through the. Brass stays on top shake it and you get. The brass out or the media out of the. Brass pick each price up shake it what have you cool thing is there's an opening here once you get all your brass. Cleaned out you pick it up for all your. Media back into your tumblr you're good to go i don't know what two three bucks. Maybe already had the colander couple. Bolts wing nuts probably not even that much i paid a dollar for the bucket. Probably got at the dollar tree maybe. Walmart i can't remember but that's what. I used to sit now i also got some of. This cabala's case polish i really. Haven't tried it yet i got at the yard sale so i couldn't tell you how it goes. That's just another product out there but at any rate. Excellent tumblr lasted me two. Years now and it's still running a new. Highly recommended if you got the money i think they're like 80 bucks i got on. Cell 65 but uh take the lid off like. Quit. Now you can see the dust kind of fooling. Around there let's get up the tripod. And that's about a good decent right if. You open your tumblr up and you see that the move around like is that's pretty. Good right now i might have too much brass and it might be a little sluggish but run this on a couple two three hours. No I'll look good in china. Hope it works out for you and we'll get. You on the flip side. You.

As I've been running this tumbler well. I've owned the tumbler now for a little over two years and when i use it. It ranges anywhere between two and four i. Have run it eight and a couple of times.

Sized bowl it's made of great hard plastic and like. I said i've run this numerous of time 24 hours i could touch that here never felt. Hot there're no signs of any type of. Bubbling or anything like that it does. Come with the lead which sits on top. Washer and a wingnut just like any other. Tumbler the overall height of this form. Base to the top of the lid we're going. To go with about 13 and a half inches. Tall and these are guesstimates you know i really can't get the ruler up next to it you might be able to check out the specs on the website so that. Equates to quite a bit of media now.

In china, you know they've got some goodies one. I've got a colander that i drilled the. Hole is a little bit bigger a couple more brian's trying to fill up. That the menu will fall through but not. The brass I've got two holes a couple of. Bolts mountains mounted to it i picked a tumbler up pour it in here. The media falls through the brass stays. On top shake it and you get the brass. Out or the media out of the brass pick each price up shaking what-have-you cool. Thing is there's an opening here once. You get all your brass cleaned out you pick it up for all your media back into. Your tumbler you do to go i don't know what two three bucks maybe already had. The colander couple bolts wing nuts probably not even that much probably paid a dollar for the bucket probably. Got at the dollar tree maybe Walmart i can't remember but. That's what i used to sit now. I also got some of this cabala's case. Polish i really haven't tried it yet i got at the yard sale so i couldn't tell you how. It goes that's just another product out there better than me right excellent tom. Berg tumbler lasted me two years now and. It's still running as new highly. Recommended if you got the money i think. They're like 80 bucks i got on sell 65. But take the lid off like wit. Now you can see the dust kind of moving. Around there let's get up the tripod. And that's about a good decent right if. You open your tumblr up and you see that the move around like yes that's a pretty. Good right now i might have too many brats and it might be a little sluggish but run this on a. Couple two three hours no I'll look good. And shadow. I hope it works out for you and we'll catch you on the flip side. You.

Hey guys what's up found you here tonight i want to talk about the. Frankford arsenal tumblr that i bought. So it's called a quick and easy case. Tumbler the whole package comes with the. Tumbler itself comes with brass polish. And then it also comes with bucket with. The media then it comes with the actual. Media separator you basically pour your. Shells into there with the media and. Media folds out and you basically just. Left with the cases it also comes with. Obviously a top for the tumbler with its. Parts and so forth and then a top for. The bucket and then it also comes with. These little shields that you put. On the bucket i guess to prevent media flying out all over which unless you. Like spinning, it like a madman it's really not going to be flying all over. The place and i actually found those just to get in the way so i don't really use them but i used to do ultrasonic. Cleaning for my brass before i would. Load them and ultrasonic cleaning works. Well if you get down your method and you. Know exactly what you're trying to achieve and do i would say that it. Doesn't get as clean as tumbling because. Tumbling you're basically polishing the. Outside of the brass whereas when you do. I'll just sonic cleaning you're basically vibrating everything off of. The metal so it's not as smooth i mean. You get the brass clean but it's not as clean and then the other thing is once. You finish actually i could just say. Using that they'll just on a cleaner then you have to let all the brass. Trolley and that take at least you know elite i would but. It took me more than a day on most among. Because especially if you leave the primer and it's even worse if you leave in the spent primer before you before. You clean them then what happens is once. You pop out those primers when you think you're ready to load there could still be water in there and then it gets your powder wet and then you can end up with rounds that don't even work you know they won't fire because all the powder got messed up so out of i guess i out of. Times sake i went with the tumbler and. The other thing with ultrasonic clean. Though is it does clean the brass and it. Takes like 15 minutes but it like i said. That wait time that you have too actually. Be able to load the brass it's its. Actually longer than if you just tumbled the media that this comes with is. Corn cob and it works pretty good I'll. Show you my brass that i have done her. Just so you could zoom in on. Sometimes the camera doesn't know i like to focus. And there we go so i mean it gets them. Nice and shiny and the other thing is to. This type of level of like i say. Shininess takes only like two hours i. Just i think these i did tumble with the. Primers out you can see they're still there's still some dirt in there. And stuff but it's definitely clean enough for a new primer and yeah I've. Had no issues as far as my loadings concerned and using those you can use. Different media though you can. Use walnut shell and there's even peopled. That use the stainless steel beads the stainless steel beads are expensive though they're about i remember what the. Cost was but it was a lot and i was looking at probably like 100 plus dollars in media in a decent size tumblr. Bigger than this but it was still quite an investment I'm going to look into it again but the other thing too is the stainless steel beads last pretty much. Forever because stainless steel is. Stronger than the brass is but yeah so. Like i said it comes with the polish and the chro-cop media and it does it. Gets the job done i guess that takes about two hours the system is pretty. Quiet for what you're doing i mean I've had other tumblers for other stuff, and they were pretty lad this one has good. Shock absorption on the bottom and it. Doesn't do't it doesn't make too much. Down for what it is and basically what i. Do is i just put it on my reloading bench and just close the door and. Nobody's bothered by to my house i don't i don't hear it outside of the whole way so it's definitely good for my. Use and the other thing that's nice too. Is the ultrasonic cleaner can only hold. I think maybe about two hundred brants. Maybe 250 this one can hold about 500. And i think that's definitely a bonus. Now the only thing that i caution you. With is when you do the brass polish make sure that you put the media in put. The polish in and let it run for a good amount of time because if you don't and. The polish is gummed up on some of the. The media and it sits inside the brass. It literally like fuses itself to the brass and you have to go in there with like a toothpick and start on each and every piece of brass you have to go and pluck out all the little media pieces. You have to push them off and that is just total waste of time so you have to really make sure that it blends in good with the media and that's basically it. If you guys got any questions comments. Or anything you know let me know and. Please rate and subscribe all right. Thanks.

Hey guys got an interesting product test today this is the frankfort arsenal brass cleaning solution so i just ran. Out of lemme shine that i was using to clean my brass and this is the last batch that i did with that it works pretty well it's let me shine appliance. Cleaner plus a couple drops of liquid soap like youtube and the internet. Recommends but yeah I'm curious to see. How this compares so I've got another bowl of dirty nine millimeter brass I'm gonna run it for two and a half hours the directions on this say to use distilled water I'm to keep to go out. And buy distilled water so i did run all of this water through the filter on my refrigerator so I'm gonna use that i measured it off to exactly 80 ounces at. The line here and to that I'm going to add two ounces of the liquid which I'm. Going to measure with three ounce cups. I'm gonna say that's about two ounces so. It's half an ounce for every 20 fluid ounces so that should be the correct. Amount. All right so here is the final result i. Have my opinion I'm curious to know what. Do you guys think i can clearly see a. Difference between these two hopefully. The camera will pick it up but i don't. No post a comment down below which do you think is the better looking brass. Have a good one thanks for watching.

For years i used the tried-and-true. Method of the cookie sheet in the oven. To dry my cases after wet tumbling and. This works well i really had no problems. With it other than sometimes with. Bottleneck cases i would end up with a little water down the bottom here. Wouldn't come out because of the bottleneck and after drying in the oven. It would the inside of the case was still damp which of course causes a problem when i put powder in it so I'd. Have to you know make sure that i got all the water out before i put in the cookie sheet and it worked well for. Me for several years a while back i had. A brilliant idea i thought well if i had. A plate that i could attach screws to. And put the cases on it face down that. Would allow the water to run out and dry. Then at the same time so he made me a. Couple of these plates with number eight holes in them even father coated it. Hornady red for me which i thought was kind of nice having and what i do with. These as i put some number eight screws. On the in each of the holes here and i. Just put my cases on like that so if. They're facing down the water would run out and now that actually worked quite a. But better i didn't have the problem. With you know water getting. Stuck in bottleneck cases and having the insides still dance after i. Did the drying the problem with. Using the oven of course is the energy consumption i use a lot of power. My electric bill on months when I'm. Doing a lot of a lot of cases was. Noticeably higher so i decided I'd break. Down and pick up a case dryer so this is. The frankfort arsenal brass dryer it. Hold about a thousand two twenty-three cases about two thousand a nine. Millimeter i believe it is and basically it consists of the top unit which has. The heater and the fan unit in it and. Then below that are a series of plates. That's the whole be the brass there's. Five of them so there're five levels but you can load brass and then of course. Down at the bottom this base unit which will catch any water and whatnot that. May drop down three days from the cases. Works pretty well I've only used it a. Couple times at this point but it does. Actually work quite well and the power. Consumption is quite a bit less than using my oven the problem with my plate. Idea that i had was i can only do a few. A Hundred cases at a time and even though i only had them in their fifteen or twenty minutes I'd still you know for a. A Thousand cases it would still take me an hour or so to get them all dry the. Frankfort arsenal i run for about an. Hour and it dries the case is just as. Well with quite a bit lower power consumption it's got an adjustment to. Heat adjustment at the top here so i can. You know just to eat between 95 and 155. Degrees the increments they have on here. A little weird it starts at 95 and then goes to 106 to. 115 to 120 6 to 136 144 and then 155 i. Thought that was a little odd you know normally it's in you know tens or fives but for whatever reason they have been in. Kind of unusual temperature increments. It's got a three-foot cord on it which. Is one of my pet peeves about it the. Other major thing that i really don't like about it is there's no on/off switch I'd like to be able to just plug. It in and turn it on and off with a. Switch and the fact it's only got a three-foot cord means i have to kind of be close to my power outlet in order to. Use it so a minor issue the way i set up. My bench it doesn't do't work quiet. As well as i would have hoped but it. Does work pretty well the blower in the. Middle here notice the plates here have. A hole in the middle and that runs all the way down through the center of the. Unit so the blower will blow the air the hot air down and go all the way to the bottom and then the air gets to plate the base at the bottom and kind of comes. Back up so it keeps an airflow going all. The way around the unit to help with the. Drying process now one of these coming. Out with one for 2016 it's a new product. And I'll probably pick it up as well and. I am one day loader after all and i do. Have a little bit of brand loyalty but. Frankford arsenal looked a little bit better as far as only has three levels. And I'm not sure that it'll drive it dries. As much brass at the frankfort arsenal also i had the frankfort arsenal wet tumbler i had the frankfort arsenal. Media separator so i thought I'd make it a match set basically you know all. Frankfort arsenal equipment does work. Well like i said i want to use it a few times but it gets the cases dry does its. Job and really that's all i can say. About it that's all for this video i. Hope you liked it you so please click the like button maybe even subscribe to my channel thanks for. Watching and happy reloading.

Everyone this is dan with m1911a1 comm. I've just returned from the range and i. Thought i would share my brass tumbling setup with you it is a frankfort arsenal it came with the case tumbler the media a small bottle of brass polish which I've since replaced with a large bottle of brass polish the three gallon bucket and the. Media separator which you used to tumble. And separate the brass from the walnut shells it's a great system I've been using it for about seven months now i usually take the brass polish and I'll. Put it around the edges to keep it from clumping up too much the tumbler itself can actually hold quite a bit of brass. You'd be surprised it'll start to bog down around 150 shells or so but. Generally it can hold a lot more than. You would expect basically you just put your media your polish and put the lid. On and let it sit for two to three hours. Is really good and you can see it's not. Really that loud but you may want to go ahead and run it while you're not here after you get finished tumbling you can separate it in the. Media separator and you will have clean. Brass ready to be deep primed and loaded. This is actually a little dull because it has case lube on it i use one shot case lube before i run these through my lead load master so i hope you enjoyed. The review highly recommend the Franklin case tumbler as a system it's been great. Thank you very much.
