I built one and it works amazing except the drum gets hot. I am affraid to do more than about 10 cases before stopping and letting it cool down. After 10 cases the drum is so hot you cannot touch it except for a split second. I angled the torch slightly out and away from the face of the unit but it only made a slight difference. I ordered a new torch head that I am hoping will have a more focussed flame (it looks liek the one you're using) because I suspect the flame is shooting out in a wide pattern and that's heatign the drum. UPDATE: Replaced my torch with a cheap generic one and it made a world of difference. The drum is slightly warm after 10 rounds now.
@@Boomerfootball1 My cost was what the Bean printed kit was and my frame was free I bent scrap aluminum , only other cost was propane hose, all in all I was under $150
Hey can you send me a screw list needed, I’m using aluminum, when I go to Home Depot with the list I printed they are just as confused as I am. I can use spacers etc but they have no idea as written. Thanks
My Bean machine works just like that. Great kit.
I got one and I love it. I'm building another one.

Good job on the build and the video.
Can I ask what the total cost was debating on this kit or a pre made one for like 250. Thanks
I think the total cost was about $150.
I ended up getting a pre made one from Annealeez as well.

I used the one he has listed in the kit instructions/kit list. The instructions should be on Etsy as well.
