[QUOTE="LoneTraveler, post: 2291415, member: 77249"] I have thought about buying a new trimmer, Borrowed a couple off friends and tried them. Years ago I took a broken hex shaft nut driver, Ground the face flat and silver soldered a Lee hand trimmer base to it. When Lee came out with the hex shaft base, I bought one of them also. When I buy a lee case trimmer set up for a new cartridge I carefully cut a case to length, Measure and adjust the shaft length with a stone, Have had to pull a pin out of 1 and add a filler put pin back in and stoned to exact length I wanted. I sit in my easy chair watch TV with drill or electric screw driver, Containers on each side , Insert case in drill, Trim to length, Champher inside and outside of neck, If new case run flash hole reamer. Run some 0000 steel wool to clean case if needed. Put in done container and grab another case. I have found no system as quick or accurate to change to yet. May just be getting old and lazy. [/QUOTE]
