    Got my FCIII

    Ordered them on Friday and got them today. Charlie sent several strips of aluminum (three thicknesses) I'll give them a go when it cools down a bit and I can cast some boolits.
    After reading many of the threads on GC's. I decided to buy two FCIII's from Charlie to make my own, I doubt I'll make enough of them to break even on the cost but I can vary the thickness and only make what I need and not have a bunch of GC's lying around that I'll never use. I guess time will tell and maybe my grand kids will be able to sell them after I'm gone (a long time from now)

    you can never go wrong, when it comes to acquiring tools.
    you don't need to re-coup your investment, unless it were to become valueless...which it won't...unless you break it

    I got mine yesterday. Better to have it than to need it and not have it. Now, need to get one of those Harbor Freight arbor presses.
