My parents came to visit a few days ago and bring us some Christmas gifts. Dad also brought me his old Lyman tumbler and his old Lee press. Thanks dad!
Anyway, researching the press it appears to be a Lee three hole turret press. It's about 40 years old and missing a few parts. I know I need a three hole turret to make it useable at the least, but what other parts do I need? I have no interest or desire to make it an auto rotating press, so those parts don't need to be mentioned. I have dies and shell holders, so don't need those either. Here's a pic of the press, the ram was a little sticky but I soaked it with a few drops of oil and worked the lever a bit and now it's pretty smooth.
Thanks.
