Ok...I give up. After managing to turn 150+ .38 Special cases greenish-colored with the water/vinegar/salt solution, I'm going to have to go for a tumbler and hope to salvage some of these.
I was thinking of the Midway/Franklin Arsenal 110 tumbler kit, on sale for $55, but reading the reviews there, most indicate that after an initial good start the tumbler soon fails after only a few months' moderate use. "Cheap" to save money is one thing... "cheap" forcing me to either spend S&H to replace it, or buy another machine is wasteful.
So, I've been internet shopping the various on-line sources, among them Midway, Grafs, Midsouth & others.
Lots of choices...Lyman, RCBS, Graf's own name (is that a re-name Franklin? looks like it) et. al.
My budget is under $60 which gives me a good selection to choose from. Any specific recommendations to narrow down my choices? I appreciate Midway's inclusion of reviews, but I've seen a few choices elsewhere that Midway didn't have.
Thanks,

PS. If anyone has a nice, used one they would be willing to make a deal on, give me a PM...
