Anyone use the smaller size Thumlers tumbler. On their website it what they recommend for brass polishing. I'm only looking to do 50 to 100 cases at a time, buying the larger unit doesn't make since for smaller quanitys.

Are you looking for a wet type?

For media tumbling, I have the Lyman twin, it comes with a large and small hopper. The small supposedly can do wet, but I have never used it for that. I like that it has the clear cover so dust does not get everywhere.

Yes on the wet type, I purchased the stainless pins from a SH member.

Go to stainlesstumblingmedia.com for a Thumblers tumbler. Buy once, cry once. That tumbler cleans the hell out of dirty brass inside and out. Primer pockets are clean as well.

I just got one of these yesterday. Everything you need under $200. And it has a capacity of 30 lbs.! I can't wait to try it out.

The tumblers made by the same company, just a small size. I only go though 50 - 60 rounds per range trip. Plus for either caliber I have a 100 rounds of brass that I cycle through for each. As long as I can do 100 pieces its all I need. As for the pins I already purchased them from a fellow hider.

Thumbler seem to be standard for tumbles, we will see how other review the Frankford. The big thing I just don't need 30lb capacity, I just don't process that much brass at a given time.

I use the Harbor Freight rock tumbler. Bought it for $54.00. Works great for 50-60 pieces of .308 brass. Bought the STM refresh kit with lemon shine.

x2 on the harbor freight kit. I bought the tumbler and and media and still have less than 60 bucks in it and it wont break. Bought just to try out stainless media and figured it prolly wouldnt last to long and then I would upgrade to a thumblers but that ol girl keeps on running and will never look back for sure now hooked on the stainless brass bath.

Looks like the Rebel 17 is a newer version of the one that I have. They addressed issues people were having with the original. If you think you will use it, get it IMO. I shoot 100% suppressed so the brass is dirty as hell. The pics show what come out on the other end. Not something I will have to replace so the investment was not a problem for me to justify. Hope this helps. If you have any questions, call the guys at SSM, they are very friendly and very helpful.
