I now realize that collating range brass to an APP to deprime it fast before tumbling, you might get some sand in the mix that will end up in the collator base......so why not use one of these? Then...

Yes and all cases based on it, like .243W, or similar size....for larger, longer calibers, you might use the plate generator...... It's a pretty simple thing to measure the case length, add 3mm and...

Our time we spend is best spent on things that teach us something, or to keep building brain cells........at my age, just watching TV in the recliner is worthless and eventually fatal. Scrap piles...

And I agree that that move may bite them. I'll be honest.....if I was looking at the APP for the first time today with the hollow ram supports.....I may have passed buying one, and missed out on the...

I infer from the place the O.P. chose to post this, that the stolen and marketed designs are 3D printable .stl files. TylerR puts his logo on everything he has created, and posted in the bullet...

I've never used PLA Meta, is Meta a brand? I've found the biggest improvement fit-wise for me, was reducing layer height from the normal .2 to .12, when I want to print small parts that have to fit...

One of mine lasted two weeks.......had everything to do with dropping it on the floor and stepping on it......so don't step on it and don't drink while reloading as calgarysparky pointed out. I've...

After I printed mine, I got two drill bits out.
One, the inside diameter hole size, and ran it through the bottom hole set all the way threw the die....hand twist it just enough, so the holes are...

Have to disagree. I've never seen Lee or any other company in this hobby do what they are doing now. The APP was and still is a great tool....way better at processing brass than anything up to...

I sure wouldn't know.....I have bulge busted some .40S&W on a RockChucker years ago with a Redding Gx, but never have run into 9mm problem brass....so that's not a feature I use. Brass for me is...

So Freecad can edit .stls. That may be worth looking at. Design Spark took that feature away in it's new lesser free version, which was disappointing. It didn't modify circles well anyway, but it...

On pins and needles........:) Saving material is a good thing if it's still strong enough. Couldn't help wondering if starting the pivots at the peak and continuing the angle to the edge would be...

All that shows me is that you have the springtube going into the bottom fitting at an angle, which can create a shelf to catch bullets. But you can't tell whether the shelf is at the transition...

TylerR's been busy changing things again, I see! The #2 plate looks like a saw blade! That's a new one on me. I feel like I just woke up from a 2 year nap!:) I'll have to print one too....curious...

TylerR and friends: I finished the 6.5 insert and had to fix the 7.62 insert. So you may want to erase the last one you just uploaded and replace it. Sorry but perfection eludes me by a lot. ;) I...

The reason for my test was that I have a thing about having more to juggle than I have to. I printed the large one first, because I load a lot of .45ACP. So then before I went to the trouble to...
