Ceramic Porcelain mixed with SS pin media. . . . .`

[Dick Dastardly]

Well, I finally did it.  I tumbled a batch of black powder brass in SS pin media prior to tumbling it in CP media.  Left the SS pins in the separator and then dumped in my CP media without first removing the SS Pins.  All mixed up now. . .

But behold, I have some plastic cigar wrappers from Garcia y Vega and they fit nicely over my telescoping magnet light picker upper.  So, I put the magnet inside the plastic tube/wrapper and picked out the SS pins easily.  I had to hold the rig with my left hand while I withdrew the magnet with my right hand so that all the pins would fall into the ice cream bucket, but it went quite quickly.

Now, if you get SS pins mixed in with some other non metallic stuff, this is a quick and easy way to separate them.
