Parts Tumbler

[Glenn 'Stinky' Stankevicius]

Has anyone heard of or seen a parts tumbler?
I was watching Classic Car Restoration last night and they had what was like a kitchen food processor, but it was full of plastic media. You put your dirty/rusty parts in and it leave it for an hour or so and they come like new.

 Wonder if you can get one in a large size , put the whole car in there , (or the missus?)

 Yep , got one of them , its handy for doing little bits like brake line clips and fittings , etc.
I got it from my father in law who used to use it for cleaning bullets before he reloaded them ( used to be into pistol shooting ) When he got out of the sport he had no further use for it so I ended up with it.
You can buy them from a gunsmith , etc .
