Brass Annealing Station 2.2

cults3d

Updated 2/27/22: Just updated it to Version 2.2. Major changes are I now use an actual bolt for the drum axle. Moved the wiper on the cartridge drum so that it now actually works. Modified the cartridge drum to hold cartridges up to .57". New ramp design. Changed cartridge holding arm to require less bends. Many minor changes. Updated 2/2/22: Added a Center Finder tool to aid in the drilling of the aluminum drum hole. Added a chamfer to the outer gear and cartridge drum hex hole. Updated 11/22/21: Just updated it to 2.1. Changed most of the parts slightly dimensionally. Cartridge drum now has a wiper to help prevent bridging in the hopper. New ramp design. Complete build instructions revised to include an assembly video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vFKDx2Qj00Y These are just the 3D printed parts for a DIY brass annealer. To finish it you will need some wood for the box, a motor, controller, a drum, and torch. Detailed instructions are in the pdf file. I used 1/4" MDF for the wood but 1/4" plywood would work. Watch the video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5o8CGu6aGbI See Annealer_Instructions.pdf in the downloads for links to the additional items you will need. It is very important to get the polarity of magnets correct during assembly. If one is wrong it will effect the whole thing. Any tips for my hours of work would be greatly appreciated. For those of you that don't have access to a 3D printer, I have V3 printed parts kits available for sell at https://www.etsy.com/listing/1147706025
