    I think I am going to try one at different angles and see if I can hold enough water at the base while having the drum running.

        Thanks. These are the projects that I find pretty rewarding because they actually can take care of the PITA tasks for you. plus it is like legos for reloaders.

          What kind of annealer do you have?

            I made it myself. Just a rotating tray. nothing fancy.
            But I am going to make a vertical one wih only one powered axle. no pulleys, no gears. simple and functional.

              Hey Meke just saw this annealer on another site. It's an induction annealer and takes less than 2 seconds per casing. Doesn't seem to have any options/accessories for bulk processing but looks interesting.

                Looks pretty good. I would like to see a video of how it works.

                    Cool.
                    A bit pricey considering you can do one with an old microwaves and $10 worth of parts.

                      I was looking at this one. Lots of controversy in the comments about whether to quench or not.

                        That is a popular one. When I get a chance I am going to work on my prototype. I will post about the project.

                          This weekend I talked to an engineer friend of mine who builds induction systems for huge industrial applications.
                          Their customers include the largest ammunition plants in the USA. Since he is an expert in the field I asked about the quenching process and he confirmed that quenching in
                          any sort of annealing is a bad thing. The metal should be left to cool off slowly as quenching can have the opposite effect. HE also talked about the benefits of induction
                          in terms of speed and specially control over the area that needs to be treated.

                          So take note. keeping the cases cool at the base as optional for short cases? yes. Quenching? No.
