    Vibrating trickler????

    Using a trickler with stick powder is a pain.
    Has anyone made a vibrating trickler????

    I have a vibra shine trickler that works on a vibration. It has a simple push button to operate it. It works okay but requires another 110 outlet near the bench. It is bigger in size than the older styles and has an adjustment for the feed or flow rate. I believe I bought this one from sinclairs international years ago. It wasn't expensive but does take a different stand and wont fit on the trickler platform of my rcbs 304 scale. I have made new tubes with slightly larger hole dia and thin walled brass tube plugging one end and using a snug fitting compression spring inside ( twist it in to place not push as this compresses the springs to much) the spring makes for a coarser auger than the threads normally used.

    Looks easy enough to make.

    I have a lyman I would sell it also, just be warned if you use an electronic scale it will mess with it.

    So how well does this work with
    shotgun powders?
    If the OP didn't want this I'm interested. PM me.

    Thanks

    You can easily judge the character of others by how they treat those who they think can do nothing for them.

    Video is great.
    $100 price tag is more than I can spend on one.
    But it does look like a very good tool.
