Don't have one, don't need one, don't want one. Cranking a handle isn't too much work. Fill a bucket, fill the basket, crank for a couple of minutes, dump the bucket and spin to dry. Dump in a stainless mixing bowl and bake at 215 for five minutes to evaporate all of the water (boiling point of water is 212F). Let cool, tumble to polish. I only do that for BP loads and badly stained brass, not everything.But, uh, if you have a FART, why not just use it? I wash 223 all the time with hot, soapy water. Just leave it to run for about 20 minutes. After I finish resizing, trimming, etc., I run it through with pins, Lemi, etc.
EDIT: should have noted, DRY TUMBLE to polish. I do not use a motorized wet tumbler and only use water and detergent to clean black powder cases, not smokeless.
