TylerR: Is the one that screws to the base, the same twist screw as all the previous ones, or did you change that? Obviously, a consideration if he wants the proximity switch parts to go in.... For my project, I used one called Chute Adapter_new_V2. Don't know if that was yours or Ammo Mikes.....hard to keep all these parts straight!
lablover: I included that "V2" part in what I sent you......so then if you use that one....it has to fit Tyler's base you printed!

I've got a few of these posted now and will try to get more up there shortly.

Hi Tyler!
I purchased a few of the JGY motors before your awesome designs came online and I wish I had waited. Honestly, I don't think I need the larger design but was wondering if the original Ammo Mike design could be used for collating brass using your brass plates and slides.
Only problem is that all your plates and slides are oversized for your design. Is there a way to scale them down for the original design? I love your bullet/case up/down slides because they are simple and elegant unlike the originals.
Any ideas?
Thx!
I thought about scaling your designs down but I doubt that would work as the tolerances would be affected.
Tyler...thank you..hex plate will be done in a few. Will update when done
GWS. I’ll keep an eye out for the files. Also, look in your private msgs. Might have some info you want.
Mike, thanks for the thingiverse uploads. Looking forward to trying them on the 650 as I’m sure as others are.
GWS..so don’t print it?
Tyler and those asking about the hex plates. Fits perfect! But there is a catch. I printed 2 and one didn’t work. The one I printed at .6 nozzle did not work.......the one printed at .4 fit great!
I’m pretty sure the tolerance level of .6 is great for larger not dimensional accurate prints. If printing things that need to fit into each other .4 is a better bet. I even go as far as printing at a finer say 1.6 layer for better accuracy. Take this info as you see fit. Extra print time will save you with a Dremel or a file when the print is done.
Hope this info helps. Now, what am I forgetting..lol
Not the Chute Adapter_new_V2......that part has 5 holes to screw into your "Tyler" base that has 4 holes. Print Tyler's version. The other three parts should fit it.
BTW, I ordered a roll Thanks!!!! Now.....I won't steal your thunder.....tell who you want.
And thanks for the heads up and about the .6 nozzle too......I see said the blind man.....

I don't think so....and I don't understand TylerR's use of the sky drive.....skeered...
labover and others:
In my Images in the posts illustrating the proximity switch, notice the dull streak down the middle part....?
That's super glue. Word to the wise...
At first I tried that thumb screw to just tighten to the inner piece in a depression.....dumb.....what it did was split layers, when tightened, right down where the streak is. So I super glued it and drilled the inner piece on through instead of just the depression I had at first. Don't be that dumb.

Tyler, no problem.........btw, pm me your address and your favorite place to eat! I see a gift card for dinner for you in the future for doing all this work. It would be my pleasure to treat you to a meal.
Now for a funny story. Amazon order showed up today that also had some of my wife’s stuff in it. My wife like to shoot as much as I do and never questions when I buy a firearm etc. also, I spent 10 years in the Marine Corps. Anyway, she comes up to me and says. “ Honey, what the heck are you building that you need all this electronic stuff..phot sensors and the like”. Being a smart a$$, I say one word.............claymore ...omg I never laughed so hard. I then explained what I was making. First thing out of her mouth was. Cool, you can make my bullets faster! I’m a lucky man
You bet sir!
So, for everyone else. Amazon has that most awesome overture pla pro filament in black in stock. And it’s going fast. I have the blue that Tyler suggested and it prints incredible! I also ordered the black. Like I said it’s going fast so don’t doddle
Overture black PLA plus
Enjoy
I posted the new mount. 6mm fit perfect on my dillon press, so that's what I went with. Hopefully I got everything else worked out correctly.
Glad I got the two rolls of filament. Hahahaha
Offer stands for dinner if you ever want it. It’s real nice in our current climate to have people like you!
And for the life of me I can’t find your open end down brass feeding video! Aghhhhhhh too much reading. Lol
That’s the next project. I swear every press I own is going to have one of these on it!
