[QUOTE="CaptnC, post: 1356133, member: 101755"] I made a simple tool to hold the case. I was not to fond of the wobble in the case with a socket. So I came with this; [ATTACH=full]83118[/ATTACH] 5/16" bolt and 5/8" tygon tubing. I also used a o-ring to help keep the tubing from slipping on the nut. I think if you put it in boiling water you could shrink the tubing to fit the bolt better. If you press down on the case and slowly depress the trigger on the drill it will self center. I very surprised how true they would turn. The above has a 264wm case that I had annealed and buffed with 000 steel wool. It has also been through the sizing die a ready too. Magnum case fit tight in the 5/8" tube and put an extra o-ring where the case goes for a non-magnum case. How about some of you guys who have been doing this a while post a picture of a finished case...just so us rookies can see the color we are after. OLT-don't use an acetylene torch...I thinks too hot. I used the smallest tip I have and even staying out of the bright blue part of the flame it was instantly changing color. [/QUOTE]
