Re: What Did You Do In The Reloading Room This Week?
Would love to hear what you think of it. I cleaned the primer pockets of 100 pieces of brass this weekend by hand, and chamfered/deburred by hand. I can't do that by hand much longer.

Re: What Did You Do In The Reloading Room This Week?
That is actually a pretty good idea that I hadnt thought of. I did try to lightly sand the top and the corners of the plywood so it wasnt so jagged, but there's still splinters to be had there!Beiruty wrote:I recommend to have some white table top cloth to cover the top and the sides and protect from wood splinters. You can staple it in.

I have a maytag washer, but it appears to have almost the same motor and control board as this:flechero wrote:Nice bench- I also had to shrink down my vision to fit my office... I'll suggest that you go ahead and build a shelf on the bottom to hold your bullets and brass. You'll want the weight ESPECIALLY since you are on carpet. That will cut way down on movement.TexasJohnBoy wrote:I built this:
Next weekend I'm going to tackle creating a tumbler out of an old washing machine I picked up.
I'm also on carpet- I put 1/2" carriage bolts upside down so that I had narrow steel feet to push to the sub floor... made a huge difference. My bench no longer moves at all, which is a big deal when feeling how the primers are seating.
I'd love to see what you do with the old washer- I'm also trying to figure out what to build for increased capacity in wet tumbling.
So I am going to totally geek out and put together a controller with an Arduino hooked up to a timer of some kind. Maybe make it so that I can vary the time on the fly with a knob or something... I'll be sure to share what I come up with as it happens...

I built this:
If anyone is curious, I followed this plan http://www.hammerzone.com/archives/work ... w20xl.html modified for 2x6s as the legs and top supports, and shrunk it down to 28.5" x 30"x 24" to fit in my office.
