Sarge Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 (edited) In my search for a large funnel to pour brass in my FART I found these https://www.swtwater.com/catalog/1342_funnels.htm. I have to order 3 since they are only a wholesaler. Should be around 100 bucks for three. Anybody found anything of similar size and quality elsewhere? Anybody interested in buying one of these if I order three? LOL Edited November 15, 2018 by Sarge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slavex Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 if you were local I'd be in for one for sure, I just use a small coffee can to fill the FART, but this would make it a lot easier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sustratiotes Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 I took the metal ring off a clamp on light similar to this: Works great and is less than $10. https://www.lowes.com/pd/Bayco-12-Watt-Incandescent-Portable-Work-Light/3122291 There were two sizes available, so if ordering online, be sure to get the larger one.

MiniB Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 I just use a cheap (under $20) funnel wherever they sell turkey fryer oil. These funnels are "supposed" to be used for pouring turkey fryer oil from the pot back into the container. Cut off the bottom spout and you have a bigger hole for brass to flow into the tumbler. Never thought to use a clamp light like that...that is brilliant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foxbat Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 (edited) Sarge, I am with you on that one, I searched wide but was unable to find what I really liked. Until I ordered a water softening system and it came with a perfect size and shape funnel - for loading resin. You might try those places, they would probably sell one for very cheap. It is perfect. https://www.ohiopurewater.com/product-search/?search=funnel Edited November 23, 2018 by Foxbat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used it 6 times during my wet tumbling and drying process for pins and brass. Really beats grabbing handfuls of brass or trying to pour stainless steel pins into the tumbler. Not sure how I lived without it. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
