Sill learning something new every day......I didn't know you could attach PDF's to be used and reused on the forum! So that's what the paper clip icon is for!

I experimented, using my personal patterns for powder measure baffles. RCBS Uniflow and Redding size. A person can download the following PDF then print it using Adobe Reader on your ink jet to perfect 1 to 1 size.

Just glue it on your sheet of Gold, brass, copper, or ok aluminum flashing or beer cans....and cut it out.

This originates from my Autocad Drawing, so I can size it to fit any brand's powder hopper. (I copied RCBS's hole shape, btw) If powder measure owners would post the exact inside diameter of their hopper (other than the regular Uniflow and Redding already done), I will resize the pattern to make it fit. Takes about 5 minutes. I'll use that inside diameter minus .050" so it will slide freely inside. Any takers?
 
Exactly. Why didn't you tell me about attachments 2 years ago.:D Uncle Nick's patterns are fine....just not labeled by brand, and I prefer the RCBS style cutouts.:) ......an no I didn't see his patterns before I went to the trouble to make some for my P.M's last year.

Not sure there's a size for all hoppers......the oversized ones? If so fine, otherwise post your size and I'll make one to fit exact.

One thing I know.....I will be using attachments a lot......cool!

UPDATE: I posted over at Unclenick's TheFiringline.com (where he moderates) and he responded with an update to his PDF incorporating the RCBS holes and baffle identification.
Here's Unclenick's latest PDF:
