[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3324082, member: 15054"] The BB's would not clean the primer pockets ..If i am spending time making a solution or buying media i want the cases to be all clean everywhere. Pins are the only thing I found that will do it without needing to take a qtip to the primer pocket to remove black residue. Most of us have copper wire laying around and time. I made a tumbler for my 2 quart V8 bottle out of a copy machine. tiny rollers and tiny motor. It worked but the little motor got quite hot so I took brass cases and placed I think 4 on the little motor to act as a heat sink. It worked. I only used it 3 times and tossed it in the recycle bin. The plastic holes the rollers went through got hot and elongated.. i knew it would not last as it was a lot of weight and plastics. My current tumbler is the first one i made. Old steel filing cabinet drilled holes for rollers and had to cut rollers down and weld back together to make them fit. Duct tape on rollers acts as traction device and the V8 plastic bottle has duct tape on it also Gorilla tape. The rollers and DC motor came out of an AC treadmill a very heavy one that would go up hill. the electronics quit and the person tossed it out for big trash day. I had no idea a DC motor was in it. It has a tag on it or sticker states 95Volt DC runs slower of course on 12 volts. I think another motor like that would be sweet for an E bike. The tumbler of mine I use it in the place I took the picture my crappy shed with auto engines and transmissions and all other kinds of stuff.
