[QUOTE="arch408, post: 1669832, member: 59036"] Geez! I've never seen a broken press of any kind before. What were you doing with it when it broke. I did bend a pin on the compound lever on a used Baire press I picked up whe I was in college in the early 70's. It was my fault. I tried to form some brass and asked the press to do something it wasn't designed for. As soon as I could afford it, I bought a Rock Chucker and it did everything I tried to do on it and it's still going strong although I do most of my reloading on my Dillon 550 and 650. I'd be interested in finding out the design stress fail point on a rock chucker. I would have thought that something on the compound lever would fail before press body. [/QUOTE]
