F.A.R.T Review

[peeplwtchr]

I bought one a year ago, and it's a workhorse. I've run it in 115 degree temps many many times, and used it about 100 times total. Thing won't die.

EDIT: I just remembered that last summer on one of the 120 degree days, I ran full loads through it for almost 8 hours, in the sun. It was so hot I couldn't pick it up. Thing won't die.

As a side note there are various gun orgs available as Amazon Smile charities, makes me smile thinking about Amazon Smile is giving money to the California Rifle and Pistol Association.

I do that already- with Michigan Gun Owners

Can you put a wax of some sort into the water with the brass and pins to keep the brass long-term shiny after it's been dried?

I've heard of using simple green that way. Never did it myself.

I have the FART Lite and I'm very pleased with it. There are times where the capacity of the larger model would be nice, but typically the lite is just right for me.

I've been wet tumbling for 9 years using a Thumler's Model B hi-speed. Once wet tumbled, the brass looks like its been worked over by a jeweler. The basic recipe is 1/4 TSP Lemi-Shine and 1 ounce of auto wash & wax (any name brand).

Once wet tumbled, the brass really doesn't need to be re-tumbled for a long time since I'm not a stickler for shooting "jewelry" every time!

Ultrasonic & vibrating tumblers not used here any more, F.A.R.T. is where
it is at, some people as shown on here even make their own version.
I use the One Shot Sonic Clean Solution instead of a recipe because I
had the sonic brass cleaner which claimed to clean the inside of brass
and it didn't.
