Tumbling with SS Media

[Smokewagon]

Update: just went to run the second drum. It leaks. Brand new, there's a split in the bottom. It's a cheap Harbor Freight, most likely made in China tool, so I'm not shocked. Reasonably expected, even.

The good news is they are very easy with regards to their replacement policy, at least they have been for the two times I needed to replace anything. But I have a local store to me, not sure if you do.

A neighbor wet tumbles. All the brass has peening (for lack of a better word) on the mouth. Any concerns with this? It can be seen if you look closely. It is very noticeable by feel. I'd imagine no problems at all with crimped bullets. But what about non-crimped?

Anybody ever try glass bead to clean brass instead of walnut or corn?

Awww yeahhhh

But can you make jerky on the other tray at the same time ??

He should add more brass or more media. Peening usually means too much room in the tumbler for things to bounce around. It's what I've been told, I have no expereiance personally with it.
