Has anyone tried one of the vibrating small parts cleaners like this one on ebay? I was wondering how they perform on small carburetor parts and nuts/bolts. I think some of the carburetor rebuilders use something similar.

It's similar to the one I use to polish ammo brass for reloading. You'll need to find out what polishing media to use for the metal intend to be polished.

I think leon is talking about the ultrasonic cleaners and you use a tumbler for your brass??

No, I use a Dillon vibrator type similar to the one in the Ebay link.

My friend who is a dentist gave me and old ultrasonic cleaner, it works great on small parts like carburetors, etc. Wish it was bigger and I could use it for engine parts, etc.
