Frankford Arsenal Rotary Tumbler and Accessories with Media Separator, Cleaning Essentials, For Brass Cleaning, Reloading, and Gunsmithing

So far so good! It does a great job at cleaning brass. It doesn't leak and I bought some strainer screens to go with it and a magnet and some steel pins for media. I have been using dish soap and a little bit of citric acid then rinsing well. It is kind of noisey but doesn't bother me. The cases I am showing in the photos were only in there about 25 minutes. It can easily hold a few hundred cases. I think it's a good value compared to the other ones I saw. I am glad I bought this one instead of the one that uses dry media cause I don't have to keep buying the media. And there is no dust. It is strong and good plastic. Nice and thick.

Great product , work as expected no issues at all, leave the cases really clean 90 to 99 %

Will never go back to dry tumbling brass again. Cleaning with this and the stainless steel pins will even get aged range brass looking brand new. Removing primers prior to cleaning will also polish the primer pockets, if steel pins used. Read many of the older reviews. Have a lot of use on this and zero leaks from the lid. As you would expect, it’s not quiet when it’s doing its thing.

Just in case you have the same idea as I did. For what it was designed to do it works great. For use as a ball mill it sucks! It spins to slow, at 30 rpm and it doesn't create the cascading effect needed for proper milling. So I had the bright idea to install 2- 1/2" CPVC pipes as lifters set 180° apart to compensate for the lack of rotation speed. The motor said " I don't think so!" The motor doesn't have enough torque to spin the container because of the extra resistance of the blocks. This was only with 1kg of media and 200g of mill. It's rated for 15 lbs/ 6.8 kg. So don't make the same mistake as I and think it can be used for a ball mill.

Cleanest brass I've ever had. I started out years ago using corn cob and then walnut shell' they polished more than they cleaned. The ultra sonic cleaning was hit and miss depending on how many shells was in the machine and how they were laying as how good they got cleaned. Now the pistol brass looks like brand new. The four rating is for the little bit of powder residue left inside the rifle shells

Works great and now am able to run a good amount of brass. First batch was 500 9mm brass and second batch was 600 9mm with just lemishine and dawn. Great investment to speed up the cleaning.

Works as it supposed to. Bright and clean brass. Haven't tried the steel media I bought. I understand is needed for cleaning primer pockets with unprimed cases. Or maybe cleaning the interior? Externally, water, detergent and several minutes of a little noise, and the cases look great.

UPDATED: I purchased Nutricost Citric Acid 1000mg (1 gram), 120 Capsules and added on capsule which appears to be about the recommended amount for one tumble session. As you can see, it's nearly new looking. In addition, the primer pockets were cleaned extremely well. Dang! First batch with no Lemi Shine just warm water & detergent. After an hour, the water was dark black & my brass is spotless. My 5.56 brass was completely fouled with burnt on powder, and now it's looks new less that little extra bright shine that should come with using a citrus-based Lemi shine or equivalent. It's definitely loud though, but an excellent value for the money. The rubber seal is very thick & durable, so I don't think it will leak over time. I cleaned a mix of 9M, 6.5CM, 300 BO, 5.56 & 6.5 PRC. I'll probably keep using my sonic cleaner post primer removal & full-length sizing to remove the lubricant.

Excellent product. The brass were perfect.

This thing has no business being as good as it is. There is a premium on nearly everything Frankford Arsenal produces but I'll be damned if it isn't worth it. My calibre of choice is 45-70 and .308, and this does a spectacular job on both. I go between wet wash with stainless steel pins and crushed walnut media and I'm always impressed. I've begun collecting 5.56 casings from my outdoor range - and despite most of the casings looking worse than scrap, they've all come out looking brand new. Don't forget to grab the filter caps if you plan on wet washing your casings. The media separator isn't necessary, but man is it nice to have.
