its a two man operation, but hey ive got the manpower

after i got the thing here i was actually a little disappointed after using lee's older trimmer with the drill.
so after a little thinkin i just tapped a hole in the top for a 1/4-20 bolt

It's a good idea, I think the knuckle buster (crank extension) needs to be removed. Another poster epoxied a 1/4 inch hex rod to achieve the same thing. I like the idea of a tapping the hole better!

Are they that hard to use? It looks easier than that in the pics.

I like the Dillon die that sizes and trims the case in one step. Has an electric motor on top and you hook a shop vac to it to collect the shavings. http://www.dillonprecision.com/#/content/p/9/pid/23636/catid/8/Dillon__039_s_Rapid_Trim_1200B_Case_Trimmer
