What kind of life are you getting out of your tumbler? I had a cheap Frankford from midway that lasted about 10 yrs. The last couple of years I had soldered, re-wired, redneck engineered several times until it finely gave up. I replaced it with another cheap Frankford and got about 1.5 yrs out of it; pretty sure the bearing went out. Saturday morning, the kids and I went to town and picked up an RCBS. It runs a lot quieter than the Frankford and hopefully will last several years. The first tumbler was used ~6hrs bi-weekly average and it’s replacement probably averaged two or three times that. Is that consistent with your experience? Anyone have a life expectancy for an RCBS tumbler?
Edit: Anyone know where to find a plug&play replacement motor for the Frankford tumblers?
Thanks!
