If you add a 2lb. Bag of Stainless Steel Media and just one Table Spoon of Lemon Juice along with your dish detergent to the "Little Guy" you will receive even greater results. I was pretty impressed with your results just from the soap and water alone. Trust me on the addition of Stainless Steel Media and Lemon Juice, you will need your sun 😎 glasses. Love and Appreciate your videos.
@@TheRealJimmy831 Yes it would. What ever brand of Tumbler you might own, you would still want to keep within it's weight limitations. The results you get from the S.S. Media are very noticeable.😉

Wet tumbling is in. Just bought the Midway home branded one. Amazingly cleans 1,000 9mm. cases in 3 hours. Great product. Keep the great vids coming. See you on Rumble soon.
just subscribed ..have been watching survival/camp videos for much too long your videos are real-life helpful practical your 5 day camp with chair build and campfire impressed me! keep those video coming best of luck
This is awesome. A tumbler is actually the next purchase on my list and I was trying to decide which one. Was even looking at the harbor freight one because I don't need a big one but this e is perfect. Thank You
If anyone else has problems with the LITE version not tumbling enough, aka: the brass and pins just kind of sit on the bottom and don’t really bounce and tumble around enough, all you need is a plastic hanger and some snips. Just use a thinner plastic hanger, not a fat heavy duty one. What I did is I just put one shoulder end of the plastic hanger down until it touched the bottom of the drum, then I measured just below the inside lip of the outer edge of the drum. Then I cut the two bars of the hanger and trimmed the hook off and the two “loose”end of the hanger now fit in between the drum and clear plastic viewing insert. Now when I screw the cap on, and start it on the motor. You can see the hanger modification down in there and see it agitating the brass and pins and causes it all to actually fully tumble and move around. Cut my cleaning time in half with plastic hanger!!!
I use 1/4 teaspoon of the Lemi Shine, 1 Cap full of Armor All Auto Wash and Wax, hot water from sink and no pins.They are too much to deal with. I cut one leg off an old pair of jeans, sewed the cuff shut and dump the wet pins in. Roll them around in the jean leg and they come out with no excess water. Left then dry in the sun. I'm done and get very good results. Just a side note, if you use too much Lemi Shine or tumble the brass too long you will start to remove the Zine from the brass and get a Rose color. If this happens, cut the amount of L.S.
I just cut 6 pieces of plastic coat hangers (1/4" round) to lay in each crease of the jug. Will be hot gluing them in place right after I scratch the inside up real good. Then I will try adding layers of plasti-dip or some type of rubber coating for porches/decks. This should make the cases tumble quietly.
Are you going to be doing reloading videos on a different platform like maybe Rumble? I really enjoy your reloading content and RUclips isn't reloading friendly.
Great vid man. Take the brass water and run it thru your water filter and drink it... i dare ya. Im actually going to start watchin your old vids to get you some views. Rock on🤙
Hi! Maybe you can answer a question about the large and small Frankford Arsenal tumblers? Does the large drum fit on the small tumbler base and operate ok?
Don’t waste your time and money. The brass does not move just stays on the bottom and does not move. Does not get cleaned in the primer pocket and the inside of the cases!
I will not buy it, no rubber in the tank, have the big one and can rinse brass through it,separate brass if you use stainless media, they lock together and use a paint screen or a nylon sock to catch the pins, place in the dryer and dry both brass and pins, I use their brass cleaner and it works great with a little lem-shine, again if they would have rubberized the inside of that little tank I would have bought one otherwise they make a great product,develop your system, separate brass by size, I use their dryer and it works great if you have little space just use your oven,use a media separator and make sure all pins get removed, good luck.
@thetexasrat That's a thought, but bed liner is or gets hard as flint but there is some other product that you can spray or coat the inside with. I think it's called flexseal it's more rubber like, just a little feedback.
@@wadepederson8457 OK, maybe bed-liner is too hard, but flex seal is way to soft. At least the spray can stuff is, and if the buckets are the exact same stuff I would find something else. From Flexsezal support - Question: Can this used on vinyl upholstery ? Answer: Hey there! Certain rubbers, vinyl, and plasticized materials may resist adhesion from the Flex Seal Family of Products due to a high number of polyolefins. This polymer is added by manufacturers in undisclosed amounts to help the surface resist environmental factors and weathering. For this reason, we recommend testing a small area to ensure desired results and proper adhesion. Yet there must be something out their that will stick well and not tear all to pieces by the tumbling cases that is not two hard. I would think one would need to scratch the inside deeply to help what ever adhere good. Perhaps: www.amazon.com/Liquid-Rubber-Textured-Polyurethane-Coating/dp/B07PGJCNXM?th=1
@thetexasrat maybe contacting the manufacturer to see if they would give up a little secret to see what they use, I have their big tumbler and that's has great rubber like lining and I can do all my prep, tumble, dry and load, sure like to know what they use or why they don't coat the small drums, hope everything works out for ya good luck.
@thetexasrat I got your question on vinyl. I did try it on a vinyl seat, and it was a total waste time and money it came right off, and with all the prep. I don't know what it would do on cloth, it may bond on it well, I found some other rubber like stuff, but you have to take out a mortgage to buy it.good luck.

Great tip! I have the media, but I'll have to try the lemon juice. Sounds effective! Thank you!
does adding stainless steel media mean less brass?
@@TheRealJimmy831 Yes it would. What ever brand of Tumbler you might own, you would still want to keep within it's weight limitations.
The results you get from the S.S. Media are very noticeable.😉
@@tonynoname455 Thank you. I'm super new to reloading. recently was gifted some older presses. One Dillion and the other Hornady Pro Jector

Thank you so much for the kind words and support that you give my channel! Welcome!! I enjoy sharing these things!
This is awesome. A tumbler is actually the next purchase on my list and I was trying to decide which one. Was even looking at the harbor freight one because I don't need a big one but this e is perfect. Thank You
Great vid!!! I use a food dehydrator that I got from a garage sale to dry my brass!!
Nice another reloading/cleaning video! I have file this video for later thank you for sharing!
I have the same bigger model, cleans everything perfectly shiny and primer pockets. I use Frankford solution and lemon shine per load.

I bought the larger drum after 20+ years of vibrating the brass. Great machine. I do not use the pins.
JJ200, great and informative video, thank you for great content!!
Thanks for the good review, I'll see ya on the next live.

Sweet action brother that's killer nicely well done review video
The FART lite seems like a good choice
When you gonna do so more reloads. They're are so informational
Nice review. Thanks you. Blessings

Put some citric acid in with the dishsoap and the brass will get much shinyer and cleaner. 👍
Sure would like to see what the brass looks like with them de-capped first.
Great Video!!! 👍👍👍👍
I want one !
Wonder if you couldn't apply some Sound Deadening material to the outside of the drum to quiet it down a bit?
Yes, I will be adding a coat of bed-liner to the inside of mine. This will help in getting the cases to tumble better as well.
Are you going to be doing reloading videos on a different platform like maybe Rumble? I really enjoy your reloading content and RUclips isn't reloading friendly.
That's the plan!
Good I'm looking forward to following you on whatever platform you choose. Keep up the good work and best wishes to you and your family.
Thank you. I'm on Rumble... Still trying to figure it out. I have 2 video's there. Same channel name.
Nice review.
Have you tried the ultrasonic machines.
Thank you. I see them but don't own one.
I got 820, .223 in the big one the other day
Great vid man. Take the brass water and run it thru your water filter and drink it... i dare ya. Im actually going to start watchin your old vids to get you some views. Rock on🤙
Ha ha... I would, but the Sawyer only removes bacterial pathogens. It doesn't do anything for metals or chemicals
I want it ! That's perfect for my new set up. let me know when you need my address lol!
Will the strainer cap fit both the large and small size Frankford Arsenal tumblers?
yes, even the lids are interchangeable.
If you pour it out thru a $1.89 wire colander, you collect all your pins, without them going in the bucket.
When you going back to reloading that’s how we found you so so long ago
dont think id drink out of that glass agian
Hi!
Maybe you can answer a question about the large and small Frankford Arsenal tumblers? Does the large drum fit on the small tumbler base and operate ok?
no, neither drum will fit the other's base.
Nice!
can it be used to clean range lead?
De Kogels Worden er wel Veel Mooier Door.
Seems like a lot of trouble for mediocre results. I'll stick to dry media and vibrating thank you very much.
This works really good!
@@jiujitsu2000 I concur..
So the strainer/cap does not come with it?
right, it only comes with the bigger one.
Don’t waste your time and money. The brass does not move just stays on the bottom and does not move. Does not get cleaned in the primer pocket and the inside of the cases!
I'm cheap I clean mine with steel wool I can do fifty in five minutes
More power to ya. But do not expect many to follow after your example though.
I will not buy it, no rubber in the tank, have the big one and can rinse brass through it,separate brass if you use stainless media, they lock together and use a paint screen or a nylon sock to catch the pins, place in the dryer and dry both brass and pins, I use their brass cleaner and it works great with a little lem-shine, again if they would have rubberized the inside of that little tank I would have bought one otherwise they make a great product,develop your system, separate brass by size, I use their dryer and it works great if you have little space just use your oven,use a media separator and make sure all pins get removed, good luck.
All you have to do is add a coat or two of bed-liner to the inside of the tub.
@thetexasrat That's a thought, but bed liner is or gets hard as flint but there is some other product that you can spray or coat the inside with. I think it's called flexseal it's more rubber like, just a little feedback.
