I love this piece of equipment. Click on the pic to see it in action.

That is really useful. How many of the other tools come with the Trim Mate?

What fitting did you use for the Lee case trimmer?

Hey Dave,

I finally got all my stuff after seeing you post this over at the Marlin forum. Drill and tap set came today and I bought 4 of the cutters (hey a guy can't have too many, besides I'm lible to screw up a couple of them) and guides for all the calibers I load.

It comes with a couple of brushes to clean case necks and a couple of wire brush attachments to clean both small and large primer pockets (but they are pretty much useless), the neck chamfering and neck deburring attachments and a small container of some useless neck lube powder. I used one of the RCBS flash hole deburring tools, the ones that are on a green screwdriver handle. They fit the machine nicely. I just slid the adjusting bushing down and out of the way so I can debur the flash holes for any cartridge. I used a Lee case cutter tool so I can use any of my Lee case length gages to trim to length. IIRC I annealed the case cutter on the opposite end, drilled it with a #30 drill and tapped with an 8-32 UNC tap. Works like a champ.

I hope the written word along with the video helps.

I feel the same about mine. Don't know how I got along without it.:-D

Neat tool. You don't see videos on here much either, good post.

I love the videos. I have one on the RCBS Chargemaster I will put on this forum in a few minutes.
