so how does everyone dry their brass after annealing/sonic cleaning? Im letting them air dry right now but getting them dry inside is taking around 2 days! What are your methods?
There was a guy over on snipershide who built a box with a screen shelf inside to hold the brass off the bottom and cut some small holes in the lid and put a PC fan on the side... Thinking about building a box like that for myself... Would take up less floor space that's for sure.
I turn on the water heater in the ultrasonic, heats to almost boiling. Take brass out and turn on end on paper towel and wait 6 hours and they are dry. Oven if its ASAP.
I use the oven method described by others. Watch heat as it will discolor brass (both nickel and brass cases). To be extra sure cases are dry inside, I blow them out with compressed air.
ive put them in my lyman tumbler with new corn media, dripping wet and tumbled for a few minutes and when they are dry the media doesnt stick anymore...blast of compressed air to make sure the crumbs are gone and go to next stage.
i would imagine those cheap plastic salad spinners would work for smaller batches 20-30 cases at a time.
spin...shake to realign the cases...spin agin.
just take out the lettuce first.
