Currently I don't make any GC but looking around for suitable thickness I noticed the bulk olive oil containers (4lt or about a gallon) are a lot thicker than any beverage can I have found so far (I...

I made one from an old treadmill several years ago. originally I had a PVC barrel but was too small for the amount of brass I was trying to clean, not sure if the photo will attach or not but I built...

In the past, when I was loading bulk pistol on a progressive (with carbide dies) I found if I took an ice cream container and dumped the brass (and nickel) cases in along with a couple of cubes of...

the only pump I had was a Rem 572, it shot fairly well. At the time I was playing with all sorts of rimfire ammo and measuring/weighing etc, the best groups I got with the pump was some cheap...

I bought one off ebay years ago and it's still going strong, from reading this thread and a couple of others on other sites some one could do very well 3D printing some spares or CNCing the metal...

I meant to say I am an armchair caster at the moment...:killingpc

Although it might be a good handle for someone...

ok armchair caster (still learning, reading etc) by using Cu are you able to reduce the amount of zinc in an alloy?? just thinking about the number of people who have got too much zinc in a blend...

Yeah BT my thoughts exactly, I guess a rough way to figure out what size GC would be to weigh a jacket and a gas check and find something close, like I said I'm looking for a shorter jacket to run...

Ok random thought of the day....

I love shooting g my hornet and like the idea of using rimfire shells to make my own bullets but from what I gather without trimming the cases I'm looking at about...

Where I was working at one stage we made aluminium fishing gauges and had to stamp the size in them, the boss bought a couple of sets of the cheap number/letter punch sets (harbour freight style) and...

Hi All

I have recently discovered podcasts and Ebooks, as I do a lot of flying and spend a plenty of time on buses to and from work sites, I have listened to quite a few and am now on the hunt (no...

I personally don't think you will do any harm in carefull opening it up, as others have said you are well out of warranty period anyway. I opened mine up years ago as the buzzer was driving me mad,...

I lube my pistol cases by dropping them in an ice cream container with 2 cubes of foam (about 2" per side) that has had Balistol poured on them so that they are damp but not dripping (hope this makes...

Kayak,
You know you want the tig... I made a tumbler drive out of an old treadmill and then fabbed up a barrel out of stainless steel sheet so needed the Tig welder :-) the barrel holds 20ltr of...

I had a similar problem, ended up using some 4"x4"x1/8" square box steel tube used as a post. Made a base plate that was bolted into the concrete floor and a top plate that the press was bolted to, I...

I made my own from an old tread mill also. I have some of the treadmill rubber glued to the shafts and have a strip of rubber glued to the drum at each end that lines up with the shaft rubber (hope...
