    It's just too loud. I looked into those and ceramic vibratory motors. They are unbelievably loud.

      I don't remember them being that loud, but only used them outside and with a generator running them, so can't say.

      Hey did you ever consider the mixer idea, but coating the interior with some really thick coats of bedliner?

        clean that brass

        bed liner is too hard......you'll dent the brass. I tried the crap you use to dip tool handles in but after about 2-3k rnds it starts peeling off...big mess.

          I ended up going with a huge vibratory tumbler. I can get 1000 .223 done at a time, which works for now. But, I still intend to build a large rotary when I have a place to put it.

            Hell, get an old Briggs and Stratton law mower engine with a bent shaft. Should provide plenty of vibration...
