Parts Cleaning - Ultrasonic vs Tumbler vs Wire Wheel?

[clx16]

Am I mistaken or is that over $3K to buy?

Oh man yes it was sold for 300 to me including the jugs of cleaner from a motorcycle repair shop that was struggling. I snuck out of work and was speeding the whole way to get there first.

That's a steal. A friend owns a shop rebuilding large machine tool spindles. He needed a big ultrasonic and spent about 10 times that on a nice used one from an auction of a large diesel engine rebuilding facility. He won't put anything dirty in that thing though. Parts are pretty clean before they go in it. He uses it to get parts perfectly clean before $20k in bearings and $1000 of grease are assembled.

Lol, was the person who sold it the owner, or a disgruntled employee? 'Cause that price is a steal!

I had concerns but I decided to mind my own business and be respectful of their time as much as possible.
