You guys are simply amazing, thank you for all your help!

There are a few things to address here. First the thickness of the metal is indeed over kill but I couldn’t find any rectangle tubing in...

I am having some issues with the welds being lead tight on my melting pot. I paid a guy to weld a piece of 8’’x10’’x ½’’ rectangle tube to an 8’’x10’’x1’’ base plate. I recently purchased a welder...

No harm done, I am glad you are safe and sorry to hear about the weather. My time at the workshop is in limited supply so I have to make things fit when I have the free time (workshop is about an...

Thanks for the information Alan. I not sure about Dillon but I thought the Hornady collater was only to be used with jacketed or plated bullets, I could be wrong about that.

I ended up pulling...

Thanks ReloaderFred!

Are you saying that the spruce plate knocker and the carrier knockers were not originally the same type of knockers? I was hoping to just get 3 of the same air cylinders.

I put in an order to Midsouth in March of 2013 and am still waiting on one of the powders to get in before it will ship. Would have quadrupled my order had I known what I know now. No knock on...

Realize I never thanked everyone for their contributions.

Thank you all!

I agree, just didn't want to use anything that would muck everything up.

Thanks!

Thanks for the link Salmon-boy. Do you have any idea on what the R value or K value is? In a thread a few years back Matt3357 suggested this stuff, http://www.mcmaster.com/#9328k41/=q2s0g7 which is...

Nice setup Hatch!

That is a good looking machine Fred, thanks for posting.

Does it have two tappers? One for the spruce and one for the boolits?

Thank you for the replies. Sasquatch-1 I think you nailed it with trying to get the better known alloy equivalents. I am looking for something more precise without breaking the bank so I will have...

I know this is a dated thread but was wondering what chronographs people are liking these days? I will be mainly using it for developing pistol loads.

For anyone that has the Carbine-Tree tester, I picked the imagine below from minute 7:40 on the following video, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jJPE1E8LQ6c, it looks like the dial reading does not...

If I am trying to mimic this setup for 220v and two 1500watt heaters is it recommended that I used two 25amp SSRs, one for each heater? One should do the trick since combined I am dealing with...
