A new element can be rebent around a larger diameter pot without problems?
Forum: Casting Equipment
Pot material i am using is 4 inches o.d. so the lee pot element should work

How does the heating element attach to the power source? I am building my own pot and plan on using 1 of the elements to heat it and control it with a PID. Can it be wired up with normal wire...

ive got a ram drawing that allows this press to use corbin H dies.
Forum: Swaging
If you can keep them from interfering with the case web while maintaining the 1.1250 min cartridge length youll be ok.

Light roll crimp. A heavy roll crimp may not be needed but if it recoils you need to crimp them to keep the bullets in the other chambers from jumping crimp during recoil.

Im doing some ciphering and i believe the mega mite spec ram will have to be 1.750" inches longer than the ram for the WH dies. Someone correct me if i am wrong as i am traveling into undiscovered...

The slot will hold the punch retaining pin and the ejector block correct? This is so the press when the ram is lowered causes interference with the press frame, the ejector block and the internal...
Forum: Swaging
Good deal. How far does the slot go into the press frame when the press is in its lowest position?
Forum: Swaging
Just to clarify the slot is measured 4.5 inches center to center on a .1375"R or is it measures from end to end? For the purpose of this we could leave the 118 degree tip angle on the bit for the...
