Wet Ammo tumbler or cleaner on the cheap.
Mike Makes It
A few years ago I started to put together an ammo tumbler to clean some used brass cases to save some money over factory bought rounds. Well this was a project that didn't get finished. Until today! You can see from the video its a straight forward build. And largely from scrap I had lying around. Cleaning ammo is new to me so I'll be working on the mix of cleaning media I use but in the video I used the following: Squirt of washing up liquid, squirt of dish washer rinse aid, 2 teaspoons citric acid crystals, 1kg of 1x10mm stainless pins and 1.5litres of hot water and then tumbled it for 30 minutes. The brass came out well, it just needed the pins separating and the whole drying. I've listed a few of the items I used below but you don't "need" a timer although its handy. I built the rig around the keg I bought, a sample one is listed below as I cannot find the original.
The timer, FRM01 was a 24volt timer. The FRM01 come in 5, 12, and 24volt varieties, make sure you pick one to suit. Timer, not 24volt: https://amzn.to/3zihYWA Keg: https://amzn.to/3RJiBQ0 Citric acid crystals: https://amzn.to/3Pha19q Stainless pins 1x8mm: https://amzn.to/3ILdQkV
