Who's the design genius of that rig. More importantly who's selling it in Canada.
Dang nice of you Mr Dykstra

A reloading tool I don't own?? Say it ain't so? Where can I get my tired hands on one?
After trying this and that at 70 years of age I found Two Old Goats best thing I have ever used. When my hands hurt treat them and the pain is gone for 2 to 3 months. Got it at a feed store but Amazon has it of course.

Yep— arthritis makes it tough— got a bench primer in the mail somewhere between here and midway—
Try the Lee Auto Bench priming tool - works great
Been using the RCBS auto since arthritis got the better of me

I've seen Two Old Goats at Ace Hardware stores if there is one in your neighborhood.

I watched Orkan's video on this priming tool and was wondering if there was any plans to spring load the charging plate that grabs the primer from the tube?

Soak your hands in ice water. The effects are well documented by sports players, and SOF guys. Look into it. Same goes for body soreness anywhere. Ice cold showers for as long as I can stand after mountain hunting, and pack outs. Plenty of documentation and videos about the subject.

This just made the last day of this horrible year a whole lot better. Great act of kindness.
I experience the soreness effects a couple of hours afterwards. Dislocated my thumb when I was younger and now have subtle arthritis in both hands. I'll need to look into this more.
No plans to do that. Some folks have placed a very low pressure rubber band around it to allow that, but I don't recommend it. Primers can be fickle things, and having something slap them around can be unfortunate. Also, in my experience it does not speed up the use of the tool. One can prime over 1,000 per hour at a very comfortable pace as is.
