    Hey Chris, Got my roller handle today and love it. So much more ergonomically friendly and faster too. Sized 1500 .45 cal. 200 gr. SWC in a jiffy. Timed myself on the last 500 and got them done in a shade over 15 minutes and didn't wear a hole in my palm. Well worth the price of admission. Thanks, Don

    That sounds great Don! It sounds like you've really got your Star humming along very nicely! Good job.

    That sounds fine EG, custom dies with no lube holes are no problem and I can ship to Spain.

    I just received my new .430 Star die from Lathesmith. Perfection in metal again, as usual! If you need any Star dies made, this is definitely the fellow to use for it.

    Now to go find a new caliber that I'll need a die for!
    KE4GWE - - - - - - Colt 1860, it just feels right.

    Whelp ..... received my "parts is parts" order from lathesmith. He answered some questions via PM, made his recommendations and I received my "parts is parts" today. Very nice work, fit and finish. I am very positive I will be ordering more in the near future. Maybe even one of those fancy handles as well. Thank you sincerely. Very happy hillbilly here.

    Chris,
    Will you make Star dies to an OD spec'd by the customer. I've decided to forego the top o-ring in my new Star because it always gets shredded during change overs. I haven't done any measuring yet, but I'm thinking maybe the best bore to die clearance could be determined for the particular machine and keep leakage to a minimum without the o-ring.

    Hi Ken,
    Yes, I can make the OD to a custom diameter, this can be useful at times especially with an older machine that's had bore damage, for example. Just PM me for what you need, and I should be able to make it happen.
