Reloading Equipment WTB FART...Frankford Arsenal Rotary Tumbler...

[boisepaw]

preferably the larger model But I will consider either.

 

[generalzip]

You looking for a wet or dry FART?

 

[boisepaw]

I’m still learning but I think it’s the Platinum model that uses water AND stainless steel pins that look most interesting to me. But what do you have and what can you tell me?

 

[generalzip]

Sounds like a wet FART

 

[boisepaw]

So I’m getting the impression we’re just joking around now? Not talking about buying and selling a case cleaner?

 

[boisepaw]

Anyone other than failed comedians have a wet tumbler to sell?

You gotta admit the fart thing is pretty funny. Shipping is a killer on those, probably 50-75 dollars. They are on sale at midway right now, that’s probably your best bet.

It was kinda funny a year ago when I was looking and heard the same obvious humor. But reloading is becoming an increasingly serious avocation.

thanks for the Midway heads up.

You’ve been trying to buy a tumbler for over a year? In that case I think brownells may have a financing plan available if your credit is good enough

On a serious note though it was still pretty funny. And you’re much better off getting a new one from midway. As said above shipping costs makes selling one anywhere but locally a stupid idea.

Wet FARTS can be priceless.
Why would you use the acronym FART if you didn’t want any humour? I agree, this thread is pretty damn funny!
Not sure why you’ve been searching a year?
But on a serious note, as stated in stock for the price get a new one here https://www.midwayusa.com/product/1012721373?pid=713881

So what you're saying is my 30 year finance plan for a tumbler ain't gonna fly?

So now I'm getting comments about wet FARTs from a guy who goes by Squeeeeze? You must not know anything at all about 'em so why are you chiming in?

(I'm tryin' to go along with this now...how am I doin'?)

By "trying" what I should have said was "looked for one a year ago, bought a regular vibratory tumbler (let a whole new round of jokes begin now) and just decided I really want a wet tumbler. Oh, and I'm such a cheapskate that I'm hoping someone will give one to me or sell me one on a 30 year plan."

Okay...enough of that. Back to Midway or perhaps Optics Planet...

I’ve got one I don’t use along with some stainless media. PM me if you are still looking.

LOL, where do you think the name came from? Haha . Are you saying I don’t know anything about wet farts or rotary tumblers? Unfortunately I know a lot about both. If you want to make it easier on yourself then take the acronym FART out. When you post something like that the children in us comes out.

I have one and like it, do yourself a favor and get the magnetic media separator as well, makes things much easier. A dab of Lemishine, Carnuba wax, with Dawn dish soap cleans very well. I like my dryer but there are many ways to do it. If it doesn’t work out with the gentleman offering, get from Midway, don’t mess with Optics Planet. Too many bad experiences and they never seem to ship as they’re always back ordered. Here’s my setup, I primarily use my vibratory tumbler as it’s easier and cleaner. Just depends on how dirty the brass is and what I’m trying to achieve.

I looked at several different brands, and bought this one, ran 500 .308 brass thru it the past weekend. Does a great job
