    AdrianH's Tools

    Hello to the group, from the North West of England

    My name is Adrian, and I browse over your pages occasionally for ideas when I need to achieve certain things. There are alkways many ways of getting a job done and sometimes I can find an idea that fits.

    Interests are mainly metalworking, I have a lathe two milling machines one is sort of CNC, welding gear, band-saw etc, all in a cramped garage.

    Have made a few things, such as a Vibratory tub for finishing and de-burring items, Ring Roller, small very simple press, cnc plasma cutter and minor things to help projects along.

    So hope I can contribute as well as use ideas from the group.

    See you around!

    Adrian

    Hi Adrian - welcome to HomemadeTools.net

    The vibratory tub sounds interesting! Go ahead and post some pics if you have them, I'm sure people would like to take a look.

    Hi Adrian,

    Welcome!

    Please do feel free to include a link to your site in your forum signature.

    I've often seen the vibratory tub concept utilized to clean brass for reloading. What sort of media are you using?

    Hi Ken

    I use ceramic media as I am using the tub with steel.

    I am confused as many tools I see, seem to be linked to other sites so not really sure how to do this.

    I will do a new post and copy the vibratory tub into it and see how that goes.

    Your vibratory tub post (nice writeup!) came out perfect. Great work, too, on the tub itself.
