If you want inexpensive you need to look at a buzz bucket.
Vibratory tumbler.

I just bought a Frankford arsenal one and its tumbling right now. Hard to beat for the price if it lasts.
These ones made by Berry's are nice. Free shipping for orders over $75 from their site.

Harbor Freight stores have both rotary drum and vibratory tumblers if you want something that is not expensive to get started.
HF stores are everywhere today!!!!!!!! I have 5 of them within 20 miles or so.

Have you read the STICKY here on Citric Acid Brass Cleaner. I was considering a tumbler but the citric acid wash does such a good and CHEAP!!!!! job of cleaning brass I don't need a tumbler.
I'll second the Berry's. Been using one for over 5 years, it's still going strong.
Don't use it for cleaning much any more, but it does a great job of 'New Finishing' the clean brass.
