[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3323977, member: 15054"] I have a Lee trimmer the case length gauge and cutter and lock stud. I chuck the cutter into my drill press and have it on the slowest speed. It is a cheap table top drill press purchased 20+ years ago. That speeds up the trimming part. Lyman hand tools without power to chamfer and do primer flash holes.

[ATTACH=full]153212[/ATTACH] But I use a Lee shell holder and lock stud in a cordless drill to feed it into the neck turner. That case holding tool from RCBS makes my hands cramp and takes FOREVER. The lee case holder is a sort of fail if you only hand tighten it as the case will spin out of it when cutting. So I tighten it with pliers. Pliers gall the surface of it and I am very close to welding standoffs onto it and a C shaped piece of flat steel to make the diameter larg enough to grip it with your hands and make it tight..bypass the pliers deal. Every time I neck turn that size case I think to myself---- STOP get the welder out. Pin tumbling is with a homemade pin tumbler using homemade copper pins. A DC treadmill motor spins it all and pulls 2 amps with a 2 quart load of cases [/QUOTE]
