    I've been using a Thumler tumbler for a few years now and think its great.

    I'm using the following

    5ml Ecover washing up liquid (lemon if that makes any difference)
    5ml Ecover dishwasher rinse aid
    1/3 of an Ecover dishwasher tablet

    All easily obtained from your local major supermarket

    Sea clean from CPC.

    I just fish the cases out and chuck them into a paint kettle under a tap of hot running water. Take a handfull of cases at a time, shake the water out and ling them on a towel then roll them on the towel to blott any water off and leave to dry.

    Simple, not that difficult.

    Not so you would notice Tim. IF you agressively chamfer for VLDs the case mouths can get a bit battered but that's about it. It suits me as I shoot a straight pull that gets cycled PDQ and needs to work so the nice smooth case is ideal.

    Good mix but you only need one tiny drop of the finisher to treat a whole dishwasher full.

    The washing up liquid and the rinse aid act as a detergent and a softener. The dishwasher tab does the same thing as the other two, you can save by not buying the tabs anymore.
    Good deals with: Muskett, Dreben, roger.kerry, TALL, Helidave1, Chelseablue, Leeroy7031, Mousemann, pnuk, Practical, NEWFI, HOOGS, Webb22, lazybones1416 and deanw5262 among others. Thanks Guys.
