Since I have not seen any good posted pictures of this I thought I would throw mine up. :) And by the way I LIKE the way LEE has the Spent Primer Tube. NEAT. :)

Thats what I do with my Redding and Hornady presses, nothing new in the Lee system.

Hmmmmmmmmm Okay well I just wanted something clean as well as not to have something I could kick around.

But I also thought with a few pictures it might give a few people an idea or two.

..............That IS a great idea regardless. So far the vinyl tube on my Lee is still there flopping around :-) I'll have to try your approch. Hooking it up to the shop vac might be a bit of overkill, eh?

A Shop Vac might be a bit much lol. As even with the LEE I do not think I can deprime fast enough to make good use of a shop vac lol.

Up till last friday I put an empty 1 pound powder bottle on it but decided it was a bit much so I changed it over tonight to what I show now.

If you go to the reloading bench thread I have it there with the empty 1 pound powder bottle.

I like that idea, mine just drop into a box on the floor at the present. I may use a large vitamin bottle on mine.

I just let mine accumulate in the tube. I do empty it every couple hundred or so. I empty mine in a jar and take them to the recycler along with my other scrap brass and jackets that get skimmed off from smelting. I went last August when scrap was high and got a couple extra bucks from the primers alone...Ray

Sounds like a good idea. I have just been putting mine in a wastebasket, but the tube keeps flopping around and spent primers keep bouncing out every once in a while.

I just put it in the drawer that is below it's mounting position.

I hung a coffee can from the bench and ran the tube into it, it'll be a while before I fill that.8-)

I use a 3 lb. coffee can with an X cut in the lid. Ran the tube into it. Works great, holds a lot and when it's full, I can sell the brass to the local scrap yard.
