"no worries mate", she's looking forwards to the package as you know, I don't do Pay-pal but the wife does us it, remember guys there is many miles between us so it's going to take some time.Mike just keep on posting updates so we know what is going on. No worries your doing a fine job
I think the Paypal delay looks like a scam, but it's really a protection plan for the buyer.!!

Actually not too much ATM.. I made my own case collator, I made my own powder cop die, made the finger safe Sizer feeder... I want to make a quick release for the primer feeder on my Dillon 650.

Screwing/Un-Screwing the little ramp off the side to stop the feeder from operating is a PITA.. I throw all the used cases in the hopper, remove the powder measure and primer feed ramp and use the 650 to deprime all the cases. I wet tumble with Stainless media, so I deprime the brass first, that way the primer holes as like new as well.... OH! I made the Wet tumbler myself as well LOL. Pictures are on my Photo-Bucket page..
What else... hmmmm I made my own Sprue Plates for the lee mold, it came with a alloy sprue plate and letting a friend use it to learn casting on he galled the hell out of the plate and top of the mold, how he managed that I have no idea, now it has a 1/4" thick steel plate.. pics on the PB page too..

So unless any of you have anything in particular in mind that would be handy to have?? Nothing springs to mind.. I will give thought to a better way to load the AS/2 tubes, although a MrBullet mini feeder should be easy to adapt and fit, the AS/2 is definitely strong enough to support it.

The bullet feeder definitely comes to mind for me.

Loop a ziptie around the fail safe rod bracket. Loop it around the advance arm held back when you want to turn off primer flow. Make the loop large enough so it is easy to slide it on and off of the lever.

Might take a look at post 10&11 in this thread.

After looking at the Mr. Bullet Feeder page, they sure are proud of them.

[jmorris]

Small market. If harbor freight could sell a few million of them next month they would be $9.

WOW there are so many parallels between those pictures and my lifestyle!! Amazing, I am not quite as financial as he is though!

[jmorris]

I never throw anything away and my wife calls most of my "stuff" junk. When you can put the junk together and save money...well that is what I like to do most.

From the skills that I know you have, a bullet collator should be easy. Your work reflects what I do as well. Simple, functional and on a budget that doesn't cause a fight with the wife.

I apologize for the delay but......

Should give you a idea what your in for....

[Maximumbob54]

I knew I was going to love the video as soon as the music started.

[jmorris]

That video is likely better than a 100 page manual would be.

[Gremlin460]

Thank you for the kind words, shall pass it onto my son AJ, he did the filming, editing and helped upload it to youtube. Its more of a how to assemble video rather than a how it works one. I personally think I could have done it a bit better, but as long as it does what its supposed to , I am happy to call it good.

I am hoping once these have arrived at thier respective new homes and been used that I will get a few posative comments on the video.

I really hope so, I was starting to worry..

Received mine today. Box looked bad holes in all the bottom corners, two sides torn at top corners, one tear was aprox. 3". Two of the parts bags torn open. But NOT my usual luck. I have what looks like all the small parts somehow stayed in the box. ALL IS GOOD! THANKS Greg>huntnman
