My long winded thoughts on annealing

You got me! I am typing at night on my phone! My glasses are downstairs! You must be right in everything! Woohoo! You get a prize! But you are still NOT an engineer!
 
It's not opinion, but fact. Are you holding the brass in the same exact spot every time? You're not. are you taking the brass out of the flame at the exact same time every time? Again, you're not. Annealers like the Bench Source and Annealeeze do just that.
Too many variables to take in to consideration for it to be a fact, you are just assuming and once again this is just your opinion
 
One could even argue that unless the tank pressure is exactly the same every session and the nozzle(s) pointed the sand place and distance on the cases, and nozzles never sputter, you won't get the exact same result each time with the Bench Source, Annealeez, etc either. They're still much better that other methods though, I'll agree.
And you can argue the same point with the induction annealer, current draw, the size of lead wire, are you using an extension cord, if so what gauge, are are same appliances or machines on or off every time you anneal, does the fridge or microwave come on in the middle of a cycle, dishwasher? the list goes on and on

The truth is I come here to learn...once in a while I have an opinion, which I state as such....in even rarer occasions I have "what are facts to me" from my experiences...and share...
So I stick around because the supermajority of the people here are nice, experienced, and willing to share and help others...
And it can be fun! Sometimes I get feisty...then I go get my self a scotch!...just chilling with coffee now...
To all of you who share your experiences, and help others...you know who you are.....THANK YOU!!!!!!
