Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will. Romans 12:2
this thread and the picture is the main reason I haven't moved forward with adding pneumatic operation to my resizing.

I have an AutoDrive on my Ponsness Warren 800+. You do not want to get your hand caught when it is running.
I see the AutoDrive on the 1050 but would never install one unless I also had a bullet feeder.
My buddy nearly lost his finger on a MEC hydraulic press. It never did heal properly.

Trying to look on the bright side, every time I go near a press I'll remember this and be careful.
LOL Only because I know EXACTLY how that feels. Keep an eye out for infection.
Ran my finger into a band saw three months ago and took a pencil sized chunk out of it's tip. Couldn't get it stitched cause there wasn't anything to stitch up. Took a good six weeks to heal up most of the way. Not going to post any pictures cause it was a real good pucker. Be safe out there.
That's why I use a lee hand press. You have to use both hands to operate it. Keeps the digits safe. (mine have enough scar tissue allready). Also I can watch tv while decapping. Keeps the boredom down.
Maybe a copy of that pic posted on the wall behind our presses will help us all be a bit more careful.

The top of the decapping rod can get ya too. At least when I reach across the top of it for something.
