rpms for annealing motor

[blinderthanascope]

about what rpm motor do you need to build a case annealer,gun) just basic ballpark to get me started thanks

A 25 rpm 12V motor should work. You will need a controller to adjust the speed as well.

Here is a list I put together from a different post of what I used.

Prices have varied slightly...

I used a few things that I had laying around as well;
scrap piece of 3/4" plywood, could definitely get by with 1/2", power cords from old circle saw, 2x4 bracket for feed ramp and 1/4" steel rod for brass guide.

If you look at the string of posts on the AR-15.com about these machines you can find all the info you will need about tricks of making it. I basically used Tophadman's design on page 8 for mine and kept it simple. Some of the guys went over the top building it, I didn't need that...

If you do build it, let me know if you have any questions and I can help you out.

Your gonna dig it...

Built mine like that for about $90.
Tip, tilt the whole setup back 15° or so. I used aluminum rod, it is more adjustable, you'll need some adjustments going from 223 rem to 300wm to 6BR

Carpetman2 asked that I post a pic of mine, so here it is...

As you can see I did not add a feeder hopper on mine.

I used two separate motors and potentiometers, one for the feed and one for my pan.

yes that's what I'm lookin to build just basic for now, then maybe I will accessorize later, I'm goin to anneal some 6dasher brass and I want to be very careful while I do it, not going to anneal till I get a good setup. thanks for the pic

That was my issue with annealing prior to this. I had no confidence that I could anneal with controllable, repeatable results. I am amazed that this little unit is so simple and works so well.

I ordered motor, controller, adaptor, think I will wing the rest around the house. Have to wait on Chinese for now lol
