    Any Body have any Idea's of what you would like me to make ????

    Hay You All
    Do any of you have any thoughts on what you would like me to make Before i become a Vendor Sponsor Such ad hammer molds trimmers size rs and such Molds are pretty much taken up and I really don't want to tread on other people venue so I'd thought I'd ask first.

    The reason why i ask is because i have a knack for ideas and such I have been doing it for the past 30-35 years and i had/have some good ideas. So let me know by PM me or email me at Austin@ScaleArtillery.com

    Also check out my photo album for some of the Jigs i had made in the past

    Thanks Austin M gilson

    How do i add a Poll

    Also check out my Auction in the Donation area for a Pair of 1/6 Scale Mtn Howitzers

    Also After a week the item/items with the most votes i'll post a prototype sample of the item

    Here's my thought on the expanders
    How would an expanding die the had a range from let's say .475 - .525 in retrospect for the calibers at the expanding point of the base of the boolit to the case its self. With the flaring point at the mouth of the case to the desired depth adjustable for the depth with increments of lets say 0 - .200 also in retrospect to caliber. I have the design methode figured out now but i'd like do do some research first. Because its a great idea if its the same as you all want and it would fit into the lee die's. How ever the powder thru one will need to be diffrent some what.

    As far as the mold i had the idea for a while well since i was a kid and i lost my dads mold and i had to make one i will have to wait until i pay the membership to say the price but it will be Cheap.

    Thanks For looking Austin

    A sizer based on the old Meepos lube sizer would be better than anything that Lyman or RCBS has to offer.

    More info needed

    Hi 30 30 Guy
    If you could post a picture of what your looking for that would help out a bit i had looked at the Google images and seen a bunch of different one but I'm not sure what it is your needing.

    Are you talking about a base that holds the die down? and what die are you holding down ?

    Thanks Austin

    Make seating dies that use bullet top punches to seat bullets, maybe have them float(self centering). This is prolly more of an advantage to those of us that use soft alloys. If this becomes big, I'll provide an address to send royalties to!

    Here's one for ya': design a bump die that will bump .451 to .457 boolits up to .460. .45-70 shooters could bump .45 handgun boolits up to .460 and load 'em in .45-70s for super light loads.

    We do this with our swage dies. Check out the swaging forum.

    I would buy an adapter for the Lee Zip brass holder to apex bit for a power screwdriver.

    Also Wilson primer pocket reamer shaft (3/8 -24 to Apex) so I can process brass faster by turning it with my electric screwdriver.

    Note - The adapter sold in Midway is for the cutter and won't fit the Primer pocket reamer shaft.

    Think you can, or think you can't. Either way your right.

    a case trimmer that will let you trim a 1,000 cases of one cartridge in short order with little or no effort, it has to be cheap, but very good quality so it will last.

    Half scale cannon, that would shoot the small frozen juice cans full of plaster of paris. Rifled barrel, and good sights.
