I use an RCBS media separator, go slow, reverse directions every 4 or 5 turns.
Pins are wet, so the stick to anything else wet.
After tumbling, I dump the cases onto a large towel. One trick I picked up, is to flip the edges of the towel under on all 4 sides, creating a slight lip. Doesn't stop cases from rolling off, but it sure slows them down.
Try to spread the cases down to one layer with my left hand, while looking for the elusive pins. Ready to grab them with the large magnet in my right hand.
Another little trick I discovered involves the drain in the utility sink. I place a 1 inch round magnet in the very center of the metal drain. I am not sure it gets all of the pins that escape, but it will get a lot of them.
As one poster stated in another thread, the pins will never wear out, but they will disappear.
