Default Vibrating Tumblers

Has anyone ever used a vibrating type tumbler to lube jackets and cores? If so how did this work?

you are better off tumbling this will move lube evenly to all jackets. not sure why you would want to tumble cores?if its for lube before squirting i think the dip system works a little better.jim, thanks for the kind words on presses and the plug for dies. george

Default dip system

Thanks for the info George, I have 3 of the vibrating tumblers and thought maybe I could get by without buying another. You mentioned the dip system for the cores. How do you do this and what lube do you use? I think I read another thread that people use RCBS case lube.

i take a 2 gal. size or so bucket and mix lacquer thinner and trans fluid just enough to turn thinner red take a smaller bucket with holes punched for draining put cores in 2nd bucket dip in first bucket swish around lift let drain lacquer thinner will evaperate leaving slight oil residue on cores. george
