Brass Sorting Machine

A few members from a local shooting club were interested in what I put together for sorting brass.
This isn't my usual electronics video... this is about modifying a vibratory brass tumbler to improve my process for sorting brass cartridge cases by caliber, that were picked up at a shooting range.

There is a companion video explaining the foot switch and Solid State Relay (SSR): https://www.youtube.com/edit?o=U&vide...

This shows how the tumbler and existing sorting trays were modified to cut down on the manual work. Instead of laboriously shaking brass though each tray one at a time, this allows the user to pour unsorted brass into the top and have it vibrate through the various layers.

Let me know if you have any enhancements that you have come up with on this labor intensive task!
The items in this video are a Lyman 2200 tumber, and a set of sorting trays. You can get these items from many sources, but here are some links.
