Tumbler Problems

[foesgth]

Well, about 5 years ago I finally got my wife to start shooting. Oh does she shoot. She goes through ammo like an infantry division. I have been using an Ultra-Vibe 18 for years. It just keeps chuggin' along. But, do to my need for twice as much ammo I bought a second tumbler. Well, several new tumblers, as they keep burning out motors. They all seem to use the same cheap 1/4" shaft motor with a weight to make them vibrate. I have a SmartReloader and a Frankford. I have gotten motors on warranty but they are the same and burn out. Have any of you found a better motor for these machines. I've tried using a timer on the cheap tumblers but they die and the UltraVibe keeps going. Any good replacements? Or should I just get another UltraVibe?

I've heard really good things about Thumler's. I'd try one of these this next if you keep going through tumblers.
