[QUOTE="Rich Coyle, post: 1955299, member: 70559"] First I size new cases to make sure the necks are round. Then I go at the neck turning from the opposite end from what you presented. First I drill a hole close to the size of the case in a 2X2 piece of wood about the length of the jaws in the vice. Then I bandsaw with the grain from the end to the hole. This allows a shell to be inserted into the hole with the neck and shoulder protruding far enough for the K&N neck turner to get clear to the shoulder without hitting the 2X2. I then clamp the 2X2 into the vice. The spud in the K&N is long enough to get a hold with the hand drill. A drop of Tap Magic cutting fluid is applied to the neck mandrel. The mandrel self centers itself. I set the cutter so it barely touches the shoulder. I tried other oils. This one seems to be the best. Using this system I can do three cases per minute. [/QUOTE]
