Some pictures of some mods on my press
1st is a modified pusher for the case feed - it is very reliable, does not jam. Machined from 2024 bar stock.
2nd is a dillon powder check actuated by the LNL powder drop mechanism - made from a cut off l bracket.
3rd is the on press trimmer - simultaneous with a redding body die size. Trims, inside and outside chamfer.
4th is the result of the trim. It's sub .001" accurate, nearly perfect chamfwer and deburr, takes 1 sec per .006" of trim or about 2 seconds of pause on top of the stroke to be safe. turns at 600rpm. Chips vacuumed by shop vac w/ attachment, not shown.
5 second cycle time from empty case to loaded round including trim, no inside case neck lube (using lee collett on station 1)
A few more interesting things if anyone is interested.
