    Ok, the new motor arrived and the fuse is there protecting the new motor. The most important thing: I learned something. There is a reason why the tube is NOT round where the micro-switch is. IF you'll include a micro-switch in your case feeder, remember to choose/ make/ form a rectangular tube for that..

    I am still making and selling the vacuum molded shell plates for those in the States that wish to build their own case feeder. PM me for details if interested?

    Ok, now I have used the Dirt Cheap Case Feeder enough to tell my initial opinion.

    Building is pretty easy if one has the tools for making the shell plate and the patience to make the micro-switch work. Everything else is quite straight forward. When those two problems are solved, this feeder works like a charm. Mine has been running for a short time now and I have a positive problem of running out of empties.

    I recommend this project to anyone who enjoys tinkering and wants to save some money (hundreds of dollars/euros even if you buy all the components "as new").

    Bringing up an old thread. Does it matter on the spacing between the bottom of the bucket and the shell plate? I've not found it anywhere.
