    A 3D printer file would be great. I made a drop on cam that just sits around the dies to replace the wire. Put up a new video that shows it in operation.

    Might as well add a picture of my attempt. As mentioned earlier made from assorted bits of aluminium that I have. The top plate was originally held under the two top bolts, but I found that the extra height from the plate raised the primer mounting a bit and it may have caused problems with the primer feed thingy. The "cam" plate has an additional piece bolted on because when I cut the plate I misjudged the amount needed to operate the lever arm and cut too much off!! The bottom of the lever has a small piece of angle bolted to it because the arm actually needs to move over to the right a bit to line up with the boolit so the angle gives a decent contact area. It also lets me adjust the angle where it contacts the boolit. I stuck a piece of foam onto the face of it 'cos it really hits the boolit with a bit of force!!

    I designed a cam that sits on top of the die locking nuts. It can be lifted off easily to adjust dies.

    I really must get around to learning how to design stuff for 3D printing, that cam piece would be a perfect candidate for it.
