    Re: Bench top finish I used polyurethane making multiple coats till I liked the shine. Reason is because it resists oils, solvents and other fluids or contaminants that could damage or stain my bench. It has held up very well over the years.

    tumbling, does it matter?

    Re: tumbling, does it matter? Might as well chime in...I use a vibratory case polisher to remove any contaminants that I don't want going inside my die. I also use a Lee Universal Decapper before tumbling but still leave the decapping rod in my sizer die to clear the flash hole. Added steps...

    tumbling, does it matter?

    Re: tumbling, does it matter? Actually, I tumble just to make sure I'm not introducing dirty cases into the chamber of a firearm I've invested hard earned money in. The benefits to the dies are just another added bonus to realize this goal.

    Why shouldn't I buy a Lee Classic Turret Press?

    Vibrating tumblers from Harbor Freight

    Re: Vibrating tumblers from Harbor Freight I have an old MidwayUSA tumbler that isn't available anymore but I think is the same as the small Lyman. It has ran for 3 decades. I also bought a Franklin (?) Arsenal unit from Midway but the bowl isn't shaped to "roll" the cases like the old unit...
