Thank you! That looks like it makes way more sense. I can turn something close in the lathe. I'll wait till i get my lyman 61 and do some measuring.

Ive had bad luck with cast and the lee factory crimp causing leading. Pull a loaded bullet after and see if it is swaging the lead down. With cast bullets i just remove the flare and call it done.

My buddy ran a flex hone through a star sizer for me and opened it up a a half thousandth. Probably work the same on any sizing die.

The only hiccup i had on 9mm cast boolits was was the stock dillon expander was shaving lead. Swapped to the photoescapeinc pdu/mr bullet feeder powder die. been gravy ever since.

Thank you, I guess ill try a good cleaning. I thought it might need to be tapered to block the nozzle. It dripped constantly. I also have a lyman 61 im waiting for, so I will have something to...

Hello, I picked up this saeco pot as shown. Is this valve rod missing something or perhaps wrong all together?
Trying to get it together to replace/backup my lee 20lb.
Thank you

I put the gpio bit back in and tested with a jumper from a pin to ground. I've only watched a few youtube tutorials on python and this is my first attempt at coding in general so I'm a total amateur...

I got the relay hat and played with your code a bit to control some leds. I removed the gpio pin portion though. How is pin 17 setup, I'm assuming the proximity sensor as well as the stop button...

The lyman 356402 is .625 tall so 15.875mm
I think 13.5mm should work great.
Really appreciate all you do.
Greekman, are you running a jgy370 on some of your feeders? Have you managed to...

I couldn't get the APP slide printed with the raft and ended up doing a support. Worried with a brim I'd break it when yanking it off. Also. I printed the 9mm slide and feel like its too tall for...

That's cool. I'd love to see the code. I bought a pi 4 and have been learning some python basics. Will you be automating your lube sizer as well? I've seen that done with a simple timer relay and...

Have you tested the switch with a meter? Not unheard for them to be duds. I can't read the markings from the picture but I believe those switches have Power, Load and Ground, and you would only run...

Tyler, I printed the new base up parts to try out. Big improvement on flipping the brass and having it end up in the collator plate ready to drop next round, I don't think I noticed any dropping...

I'll give them a test. I have the set up pretty well dialed in with a case ending up base down maybe 1 in 250 but that is at a hair under 4rpm. Appreciate it all, we give you our thanks.

Yes I'm using the straight shot funnel adapter.
The increased angle and increasing rigidity of the whole setup seems to have me on the right track.
Thank you very much.

Does anyone have a winning configuration for 40sw brass mouth down for bulge busting? I'm getting roughly 5% feeding base down and an occasional case going sideways in the adapter/funnel creating an...

Hello everyone, appreciate all the work everyone has done on this already. I have been working on this setup and except for the actual dropper mechanism things seem to be pretty smooth. Was able to...

Thanks Whistler. I thought the 135 might be a little longer. For CZs it looks good. Seems like perhaps a 929 clone might be better for your...

Whistler, that's the 135 grn version right? Have you taken a caliper to see how long they are?
