Been shopping for awhile any one really bad or good?
Good place to get a deal on one?

I've had a Lyman for a little over 10 years, no problems. It's not the biggest tumbler but it works fast.

Most of them are just about the same - they shake. I might look at the Dillon after Lyman.

If I were to buy a new one today, would get similar size and a clear lid. Mine has a little drain spout but it's useless, especially if you own a media separator.

I usually shop at MidwayUSA, Grafs, Lockstock, Midsouth, etc.

Mine is made from on old ice cream maker. It has a can inside and a motor on top that turns it. It has two rollers that the can runs on and a block of wood so you can lean it over at a 45° angle. I bought it from a friend 12 years ago. I think it works great, but I've never had anything else to compare it to.

I got mine from MidwayUSA. I'm on my second one, which I use almost 7 days a week for a couple of hours each day. My first one lasted five years. I believe they are on sale at the moment for $36.00 for the tumbler only, a bit more for a kit. They are labeled Federal Arsenal now.

I also made mine. Works great used spare parts around the house. Plan on making a BIG one with a 5 gal bucket and an ice cream maker motor.

Berry's Manufacturing

It works well, but I'd like something larger. I'll probably go the homebrew route or buy one direct from a local manufacturer, assuming he'll cut me a deal.

Got two of the large Midway tumblers. Been working good for eight years.

I've had one of the Midway tumblers for about 6 years now. I think I paid $45 for the whole kit.

It came with a clear lid but now I don't even put the lid on it anymore. Makes it easier to throw in the odd piece of brass or add brass polish.

I use an old Thumler's Tumbler I inherited from my grandfather. A buddy of mine worked in a body shop for a while and we used an old paint shaker. It worked very well and very fast.
