The best way I ever found to clean brass is by using stainless steel pins.

Gas gun suppressed brass only gets so clean for me. Bolt gun stuff shines up pretty good though. That's all cosmetic either way.

I like some of the ideas for a home made wet tumbler, but the cost for an electric motor would run me around $100 locally. I would be starting from scratch and would have to buy the other materials for the tumbler, stainless steel pins, etc.

A cost effective option would be to buy a kit with everything a person would need to get started. MidwayUSA has a kit for $140. https://www.midwayusa.com/product/1019428848?pid=396592
