I did a quick search but if this is a repeat of a similar topic that is up to date please lead me there.
I would like to try wet tumbling and I have read that the FART is the way to go for the actual tumbler. Some say pins but some say no pins, this could also be affected by de-priming first. If you de-prime first do you dry tumble so as not to run dirty cases thru the die? The different cleaning solutions seem to be personal preference. What about drying the cases once done, does one need a machine to do that? I've seen outside air drying but most of my reloading is done in the winter so the temperature might not allow that.
The other aspect would be the bench set-up. Are you guys near a sink with a large table for sorting out the pins and cases? A magnet seems a useful tool as well. I reload all different sizes of cases, some on a single stage and some on a Dillon and currently doing this in the basement, where I have electricity but no water or drain. Anything else I missed?
