J0N Posted November 20, 2015 Report Share Posted November 20, 2015 Hi, I've done a quick Video review of the Frankford Arsenal Rotary Tumbler. If anyone has any experience with different stainless steel media's I'd be very curious to hear your thoughts? Thanks Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simonl Posted November 20, 2015 Report Share Posted November 20, 2015 use pins only. I tried some media with mixed shapes. Nightmare. EVERY damned 243 case had the balls stuck inside them. Some never came out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonl Posted November 20, 2015 Report Share Posted November 20, 2015 Good review, but your music was too loud in comparison to your audio track. It added no benefit, just annoyance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phaedra1106uk Posted November 21, 2015 Report Share Posted November 21, 2015 Where did you get the 220v version from? I have one waiting for me to collect in Florida next week, got it from Amazon.com for the stupidly cheap price of $144 (£96) along with their case prep centre and an RCBS carbide cutter.

17 squirrel Posted November 25, 2015 Report Share Posted November 25, 2015 Hi Jon. I have a couple of .17 and found that the pins were a real pain to get out. so i use 1mm round balls now, they go through the flash hole and i find them much easyer in all cases, and are slightly quicker. Also when i dry them i use the white plastic reloading blocks from reloading solutions. I drill a hole just slightly bigger than than primmer in them, you can then fill them with cases, stack them one on top of the other,the type of case doesent matter they all have the holes in the same place. This give air flow through them a bit like a flue or cimmney and they dry really well overnight. If i buy from america these days i always get the 110v one and use a step down transformer. Some years ago i brought from Cabelas a 220v RCBS sibewinder. This was in the days of midnight phone calls before the internet, i had a problem with it and they were out of stock of 220v with no back order so they sent me a 110v,they always have them on the shelf.

Elliott Posted November 25, 2015 Report Share Posted November 25, 2015 Great video and into to SS tumbling. I'm suprised, there's still quite a bit of faffing about needed. I intend to upload a video of my US method combined with dry tumbling. I similar results for probably around £120 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
