  • What is the motor off of?

  • @396Diesel  GD120 DC Geared Servo Motor

  • How long do you tumble for?

  • @nadbooker All depends on how shiny you want your brass. A couple of hours gets most of the grime off but anywhere from 6-8 hours to make them shiny. The media I have been using is half crushed walnuts and half corn cobs.

  • great stuff man! im going to have to try this, im on a definite budget and can only get presses and dyes. Thank you again in advanced!

  • @sqc281 No problem. Let me know if you have any questions.

  • I bought an old icecream maker made by sears at a thrift store for five bucks. Took out the center paddle, filled it up, and turned it on the side. So basically works just like yours. Great vid, thanks

  • Simple and effective! Nice media seperator, also.

  • You should sell these. I'd pay for a hand-built tumbler like this rather than some POC made-in-China tumbler.

  • pretty kewl job u have there.

    would do a great job on all these cruddy pennies from the sea

  • Very nice. Great explanation. And it seems to work well.
