[QUOTE="rsbhunter, post: 2395293, member: 5850"] I did flame annealing for the last couple years...built the machine that spins the case and drops it out , feeds another etc. Got great results....just a week ago, bought the handheld induction annealer (heater) and timer as shown on YouTube "DIY induction annealer". Of course I'm working on a water cooling system for the coil, have bought copper wire and tubing to make new coils with, and am working on an auto drop system. The results make my flame annealer seem outdated.....the cases come out exactly the same, every time, from batch to batch, case to case. The problem with flame is that I don't believe the flame is exact enough temp wise and distance wise to be repeatable enough. The Flame machine cost me probably $100.00-125.00 to build. The annealed I'm into $250. Probably another $10-$25 and I'll have it complete, to what I want....I was using it as soon as the brown truck left it as it came, and it is a great improvement over flame. However, if money is a limit, flame still gets it done....rsbhunter [/QUOTE]
