Thingiverse has the files. You need a printer that will print at least 9" across. Mine will do up to 12", but it's going to take a couple of days to print. And I want to use ABS, which means it needs an enclosure. And I really want to be able to design stuff myself, instead of just using other people's designs. It's going to take some time to get where I want to be.
I've never been a capable programmer. I've been able to hack some BASIC and Pascal programs, back in the day, to do what I wanted if they were close, but never managed to successfully write a complete and complex program. My brain doesn't work well that way. I have a copy of OpenSCAD, but haven't managed to use it for anything but getting frustrated. Solidworks has a program for veterans where a 1-year license for the educational version is $20. I've sprung for it twice, but not spent enough time to actually learn anything on it so far. Partially, that's because I'm also learning to be a machinist. Took a class in high school something like 46 years ago, and wasn't bright enough to take another class until SWMBO said I should late in 2014. Started full-time in February 2015, and after a couple of months switched to part time, and been doing it since then. Also have a bunch of health issues in my family, and was working full time. I'm now retired, and working on dealing with some of the other challenges to spending time on the things I want to do.
I need to make an adapter for a round Lee primer tray to fill Dillon tubes. Those trays orient very primer correctly and I have a bunch of extras. Plus I hate filing primer tubes.
If there is a print media that would burn out clean you can print a reciever and sand cast it still would need a lot of clean up nut you shoulf be able to cut way down on machine time

Anybody like to make one of these for me? Let me know how much. Not directly tied to reloading/ but it aids in milling my bullet molds (removing the GC ring).

Great, let me know what I owe. Thanks a million fellas.
Filament is cheap. We already paid for the printer. It runs unattended. I'm happy to help where I can.
Someone will need something you can do or make, some day.
Please PM me your address.
I even get used bubble mailers free for the recycling. .

Many thanks to dbosman (and son) for the tooling made for my Mill. Received the device today. That will save many a chipped or broken pieces of tooling.
I've made all kinds of useful stuff since buying my first 3D printer. There was a slight learning curve but once I got the hang of it that 3D printer came in real handy.
Here's my short list of just some of the stuff I've been able to make with my printer. To describe it all would take me to long to write and far to long to read for that matter.

Thanks to the Trump Stimulus check I just recently bought a new Epax X1 3D resin printer. With resin prints I now have the ability to print with much tighter tolerances so I'll probably be revisiting some of my previous 3D filament printed models.
I've already started with the fishing lures I'd printed before with my FDM filament printer. I think that whatever model of 3D printer you decide to go with will be your first step toward nurturing your creative side.
It seems that lots of folks buy 3D printers to print little trinkets and such. I don't have a problem with that but I've never been one to print stuff that I can't get specific usage out of. I like designing and printing stuff I can put to good use.

Could have used one over the weekend. I modified the kids power wheels to run off Bosch 18v batteries. I bought battery adapters that were 3D printed on eBay. And then had to mount everything together including the motor speed controller. If I had a 3D printer I could have printed one piece that would have included the adapter for the batteries and mounting holes for the motor speed controller. I really need to buy a printer.
There is a kickstart running on the Crealty CR-6 SE now. Think can get it for around $320 if that phase is still open. I really thought about it but I have to many other projects going.
