    Annealing in taupo

    Hello all,

    am keen as to learn about annealing

    My 260 brass is in major need of annealing, is there anyone in taupo who could help out?

    otherwise will send it to the guy on TM.

    How many have you got to do?
    I’ve got an AMP machine that I could do them for you, they need to be the same make brass and you will need to sacrifice one.
    I’m in Whakatane but travel through Taupo a lot.
    Failing that you can post them to me...... I’m assuming you have less than 100?

    Am definitely looking for precision yea

    I do have some knackered from a previous batch that I'd happily sacrifice
    I'd be keen for whatever works though mate, It'd be for 90 cases yea

    Feel free to PM me

    Not the best thing KK. It's kind of hit and miss.

    Have an AMP machine as well. Live just north of Atiamuri so could do them for you if you don't take up robh500's kind offer. A sacrificial case should be from the same batch to get the best result.

    Sounds like you're probably sorted but I'll be passing through Taupo in about 11 days, I'm also based around Whakatane and have an AMP annealer. Get in touch if you need.

    Regards,
    Joel

    No worries mate, I ended up hitting buy now with the trade me guy because the cases needed a good tumble to.

    Thanks for the generous offers though it's appreciated.

    I'll in no doubt be in touch with you again @10-Ring to get it done in the future. am keen to see how the AMP's work

    Thanks again for the offers though, bloody good community here
