Made an adjustable height back jaw for the tube notcher vise. It adjusts up and down 1/2” to cut offset notches.

 

[woodchucker]

made a feed for the old bone.

and a switch & mount.

Oh, quill stop and a much needed oring bumper.

Pick these up over the summer. 1927-1988ish Star Progressive loaders. (both have aftermarket case feeders) How it works with feeders , Rotate plate to the next station, add a bullet, remove finished rd and cycle it.
So I made an auto indexer to rotate the shell plate and a case kicker for the completed rd
Now just add a bullet and cycle it..Went from around 400 RPH- 1000RPH



..and a vintage style roller handle.

Just a “proto type” Now it’s perfected, I’ll redo and clean up a couple pieces.

Finished the vise jaws. Made spacers for the bearings and the gearbox and added a plate along the edge of the mill table to square it up against the machined edge of the base plate.
