What annealing machines are you all using ?

Thinking of buying the Annealeez machine. Not sure what extra wheel I should use for 6.5 PRC and 7mm WSM ?

AMP

I have an Annealeez and like it a lot. However, the one disadvantage I see with all the flame machines is the need to retune them for each run because you can never get the flame set exactly the same way this month as last. With a salt bath or induction machine, the process should be repeatable. If the thermometer says 750º it should take exactly the same amount of time as it did the previous run. If the ammeter reads the same, it should be the same as last batch. This should make these processes better for small batches.

If anyone knows of any tricks to get repeatability out of a propane torch, please let me know.

If you use a propane regulator you'll have far less flame variability over the life of the bottle.

You will need the magnum wheel kit

Built a GinaEric induction annealer.

Mikes .

this is what I'm gonna do

I have to say, that beats the drill and socket. Throw in a timer and some Tempilaq and your good to go.

I would love to have the AMP, but I bought the Annealeez 2.0 11/2 years ago and I am very happy with it. I thought about converting it over to Map gas, but I have a large supply of the little Colman propane bottles. A better idea would be to hook it up to a large size propane tank (grill size) with a regulator. That would give you better flame control at the tip. Just an idea.

275 bucks is not bad, sorry I said wrong price 007

The Annealeez is $275.00 and that included shipping at the time I ordered mine.

LOL, I had to check the price also. I thought that they raised the price when I seen your post.. My FIL just received his 3 weeks ago and he did not mention to me that the price went up. For The price, it's a solid unit.

GinaErick induction annealer, see it in action

That's just to kool. Where there's a way, and a want. A Reloader will figure it out.

 

[milboltnut]

Great job it does, but one case at a time? Nah. How about just a hopper that sorts them ! Now I'm expecting too much ! LOL

 

[milboltnut]

wife would complain about the smoke, definitely an outdoor deal

Can't quite see how the chute causes the base to go first.

maybe where the sheetmetal is cut off an angle, that guides it base first?

There's a sheet metal screw sticking up that hits the shoulder.
It is filmed with a potato, which makes videos impossible to watch. I don't know anyone who's monitor is mounted vertically.

AMP MK II. The machine that can do it all. Name another machine that can analyze your brass and anneal it perfectly every time. The Kurt Henning of annealing machines.
