    ended up using a cardboard box--wooden box will happen once the heat index drops below 110°

    probably come up with a way to mount it on top of a tumbler--hand shaking is OK but a bit slow

    did over 400 in less than 10 minutes--it works great!

    hopefully, I'll never need to use the .45 Colt one but I'm ready if/when the SPP ones start showing up in quantity

    How do you get all of your projects done in the 2 days a year when the heat index is that low?

    actually, it's 3 days
    and then it does cool off when the hurricanes come through

    I do get up at 5:30 so I can get to the gym then shop for my child-bride and do a bit of puttering in the garage

    Great idea - if only I had (or could afford) a 3-D printer. Someone should patent this idea and manufacture them for sale. Then, when someone else with big cash comes along, they can sell the rights to them!
    Service members, veterans and those concerned about their mental health can call the Veterans Crisis Line to speak to trained professionals. To talk to someone, call 1-800-273-8255 and Press 1, send a text message to 838255 or chat at VeteransCrisisLine.net/Chat.

    If you or someone you know might be at risk of suicide, there is help. Call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-8255, text a crisis counselor at 741741 or visit suicidepreventionlifeline.org.

    In case anyone was wondering, I think small primers are here to stay. I just bought some Federal HST ammo, and it came with small primers.
