i did use a spring loaded collar to make a little dam for the bullets but I couldnt get the dropper to reliably drop using that. its possible one that botttomed out perfectly would work but these are...

So I got these posts 3d printed and used my feeder to size around 1k 9mm bullets last night.
Downsides: you have to go kind of slowly so they don't fall off the posts, not crazy slow but...

speaking of sensors, does anyone have a link for the switch the drop tubes were originally designed for? the linked one from the files is way too small to fit in between the slots and the hole...

here is a similar setup that inspired me, i tried to duplicate it but my 3d printed die did not trigger with the shorter narrowed cases. i'm gonna actuate it separate from the case. anyway ill update...

I am using my feeder to size cast bullets on my xl650. I've already got a couple of the kinks ironed out but more to come!!
I printed little pillars to push the boolits into the pass through...

it also has been mentioned but that little hole on the back/inside or the flip plate is for a screw. you adjust the spacing of the plate by taking it out and unscrewing the head to push the plate...

I've got a couple of spring questions. I bought the linked springs in 10 12 15 mm from a few pages back, Alibaba 1 meter.
Why do people stretch them? Is it just to see the bullets travelling?
I...

I have what may be a dumb question... As payment see the photo, I'm testing using my variable DC power supply if just inputting my geacan motor at 2v and make sure it doesn't heat up or burn up or...

That's so funny, I came to the same conclusion independently today, although I may switch a little buzzer at the bottom for when there are 3 or 4 bullets left and have the drop tube at the top...

i found the top layer to be good enough, it was the earlier pic, where my infill had such large gaps and those features started out looking like they wouldn't "come together" before the top surface....

It seems as though the linked switches can either be NO or NC depending on which poles you use. Also a comment on Amazon makes me thing the switch resistance can be changed by opening and cutting or...

The part that was scaring me was these in the picture, the little tapers comet tails leading away from the bullet pockets. It turned out ok I think it just printed lots of the first layers into open...

i used the manual suggested 10% for the shell plate and the same pattern as the pictured main body but i guess the % changes the size or something id have to play around with it to see what has the...

I have a few questions i have been reading this thread for a couple weeks and printing a few parts at a time. Im currently about 12 hours into the main body!!
I will share some experience to try...

well i got some interesting things to think about including a PM about trying some acid on the lead cast bullets to see if it reacts, showing zinc?
it was very cool here so that bottom pour pot...

These ingots were a couple brinels harder than the rest of my lead, based on the pencil lead test, more hb than b
Once cooled and dry I can weight and measure them a bit but I didn't separate...
Forum: Lead and Lead Alloys
I had my concerns when I smelted this batch. It seemed like I was getting some weird looking ingots especially if I tried to pop the out of the mold hot.
I heat my batch slowly and I sort every...

Thanks for the encouragement and the ideas, I'm not seeing a lot of impact variation at the different speeds so I'll probably just wipe it out really well from the storage lube and go for a first...

Thanks!! We are still eating on the elk, finally got a steak recipe that the wife really likes. No more eating the same thing 4 times in a row for me, good and bad I guess

Well now I'm testing the dead soft roof lead loads and 2 things are very clear.
1. Y'all was right! I can start and seat these new soft bullets easily with my "ball" starter.
2. I am getting...

I did make a few bags of jerky, i haven't gotten into it much yet. there was more of that roofing lead, is 60c lb a good price, also i only shoot the ML a few times a year, i figure 15lb = 328 320...

A bit of an update after all the support i got on this thread last year,
I just was at the recyclers buying a MAF sensor and picked up 15lbs of what i believe is dead soft roof flashing LEAD...

Well it was a double lung shot, not much resistance there I guess, very close and at 1500fps I went through one rib and clean out the other side.
I'm not complaining man it got the job done in a...
