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

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.

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

LOL, where do you think the name came from? Haha :ROFLMAO:. Are you saying I don’t know anything about wet farts or rotary tumblers? Unfortunately I know a lot about both:sick:. 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
