This is a Frankford Arsenal rotary tumbler with media and cleaner solution for 160 (Plus tax and shipping). This is not a bargain price.

I have the Frankfort Arsenal wet tumbler and have no complaints. I got it off Overstock.com for $50 but you have to check there often until you see them in stock. They go fast at that price.

The Lyman looks a little cheap.......how is the Frankford holding up?
I don't have enough cycles on it to comment on its longevity, but its held in rather high regard on the gun boards I frequent. It sure does make the brass shine.

That looks to me like a real solution.

Congratulations, best I have ever seen.

Mine would look like an erector set.

Can i ask, how much does it weigh, excluding motor you have over 100 or less than 100 in cost?

That square tubing you cut something up or what?

i got around 150 in it the best i remember. probably weighs around 20 lb....new motor was around 60-70 dollars i think. just scrap 1 inch tubing i had laying around.. its all put together with the round/square tubing connectors which drive in the ends of the tubing and are threaded for 1/4-20 bolts. i could have butt welded all the joints but thought they are cool. we use tons of them at work. my wife loves to clean brass with it...comes out soooooo shiney she says.
