Thread: Just reiterating I love the F.A.R.T.

  1. #1

    Just reiterating I love the F.A.R.T.

    While this has been covered in a variety of threads, I just wanted to say I am really glad I went back to wet tumbling.

    It is fast and easy and awesome. I do not bother with the pins (they are handy, used them on one batch of nasty stuff I bought cheap) and still have not bothered with a dryer. I have enough brass that I can just lay them out on a towel and give them plenty of time to dry, I am rarely under enough time pressure that I need to load cases that soon. If I occasionally do, I put a tool head in the 650 with nothing but a Lee de-prime die in it and knock the primers out, unprimed cases (in my climate) would be loadable by the next morning.

    I use the hive preferred Armor-All and citric acid and they look great and load smooth.

    The lack of dust is great.

    This is all stuff that is already here, just resurrecting it for folks that might be thinking about it but might be thinking they have to deal with the pins and drying and yada, yada, yada. That stuff is all cool but not initially required.

    That is all...

    Same thing here on all points. Except...

    Where is the discussion on Armor-All? I missed it. Does it replace the detergent?

    because the "wax" aspect of it makes the cases easier to size. Available anywhere, including Walmart.

    Scroll down until you see brass, and you’ll see the results of wet tumbling brass that was previously dry tumbled for hours on end.

    How much do you use with a tumbler load of cases?

    Very little. I pour a very thin stream for 1-2 seconds and sprinkle a bit of lemishine in.
