Wish I had our manual writer's skills....the manual could be streamlined too for the same reasons......I don't even know what software he used. So I'm not much help.

I hope "Orig" doesn't make it worse. New folks too often get committed, like XDrebel did, buying the other options (which are more fidgety to use) then you are stuck with supporting 3 times the...

This video shows why it's best to print it upside down.....the twist connector prints perfect that way. But I heat my bed to 65C to make sure it sticks.
As for printing "anyway" Cura may.....but...

You're not slow. But I'm obviously forgetful. I forgot you and most of your followers are not old school like me, and don't mount the prox switch directly below the collator or nearly so, sometimes...

I got the idea he was worried about it being too much and destructive in case of a jam. With a clutch, no chance of that.
Forum: 3D PRINTED RELATED ITEMS
If is was mine, I'd use them. That's why Tyler created the clutch. If you get a jam, the center keeps turning, so really there is not jam, unless you set the clutch way too tight. I test my...

Yep....I understand too, but imo turrets are the wrong answer. Lee's APP taught me that case and bullet feeders on a single is way useful and and a feature long overdue. Besides my original R.C, I...

Line 27 maybe should be more like 12 than 18.....18 may allow double stacking of cases....closer to your base dia...preferably just a little less. My .308 plate is 8mm high and works perfect.

My large rifle plate has slots only 54mm, long to accommodate .308 Winchester. the 6.5x55 Swedish is 55mm long....so not likely.
May be time to learn how to use the plate builder.....

Yes and all cases based on it, like .243W, or similar size....for larger, longer calibers, you might use the plate generator...... It's a pretty simple thing to measure the case length, add 3mm and...
