Dang man, how much brass you got? That would clean a whole bunch at a time.
Well done
I wish there was a "like" button for posts.
Nice looking tumbler. Please give more details on its construction. My old vibratory tumbler gave up the ghost last weekend and I'd rather build than buy.

Cleaned some cases with my home made tumbler. Seems to be working well. I was surprised how black the water was after cleaning. With my vibrating tumbler it would have been all dust and you end up breathing some of that. Im still working on an easier way to get all the SS pins out of the cases. If any of you have a good system for that I would l like to be educated on it. ive been using a colander and one of those plastic gat litter boxes.

The motor shaft I have is 5/8 inch , so happens 3/4 inch pipe ID is around 5/8 so I drilled and tapped a pipe niple and ran a bolt through so it would go into the shaft keyway then screwed the the pipe nipel Into a pipe base then cut a pice of plywood to fit into the bucket then centers the pipe base and screwed it through the bucket into the ply wood. Mounted the motor so the bucket would rest on the rollers. Then attached angle aluminum to the bucket that will fit in the bucket mounted to the motor. Loader up put the lid on and flip the switch. I had to prop the back end up a little to get the angle I wanted. It workday so far.

Great job. It never ceases to amaze me at what some people come up with on this site.
A vote for anyone other then the conservative candidates is a vote for the liberal candidates.
Great job. If you add a couple agitators inside the bucket it will work much better (and faster).
Nice job. Got me thinkin' now.
There are two Angle aluminum pieces in there. I thought about putting more in but didn't want to drill any more holes in the bucket than I had to. I used O rings between the bucket and aluminum where I bolted them together. This thing is loud when it's full of brass.

THe best way I have found to get pins out of the way is with a rotary media separator. I have the RCBS one and fill the bottom half with water, add the brass to the separator and rotate while the water is running over it. I do it outside with the garden hose.
The trick to separate pins from brass, is to do it under water. Rotary separator or a sieve in a tub of water.
Nice job Matt.... Looks like you can do a ton of brass at a time with that.
Looks like the temp and rain has our range de-thawed... I will be heading out to mine soon as the storm breaks.... Wanna come with? The pistol range has been giving up a ton of lead.. I was gunna try the white vht on some 30 cal boolits and want to test out some 22 cal boolits cast with some hard mono alloy that a buddy sent me... Lets make a morning of it.

Does the motor tag specify RPM?

I will check and get back to you. I cleaned a gallon of 44 mag cases with it to day, let it run for 5 hrs.
