[QUOTE="Wado, post: 1189270, member: 42926"] Walnut is dusty so I would advise against dumping the brass and walnut into the separator inside your house or reloading room. I run my tumblers out in my shop and when it's time to empty put on a dust mask and a pair of nitrile gloves to handle the brass. I will guarantee if you tumble de-primed brass with walnut you will get pieces stuck in the primer flash holes, it's alright if you are going to run them through the sizer just make sure the decapper is in place to clear the hole. I always use compressed air to blow the dust off and clear the holes. It's really not a bad idea to wear gloves the entire time you are handling the brass due to lead and who knows what else is on it. I got talked into cleaning several thousand pieces of brass one time and after sorting through about a thousand my hands were black, I have worn gloves ever since. [/QUOTE]
