This was the largest waste of funds In decades.
Post your most USELESS piece of reloading equipment….

I had one..temporarily!!
Tried a lube pad once or twice back in the mid 80s when I started reloading. I tossed it aside and never used it again.

Too late. I'm in the process of figuring how I want to mount in to my bench. I do not want to drill a hole in my new 3/4" red oak top for the primers to fall out the bottom. I'll take some tylenol and build a bracket.
It's for decapping only. I seen the Lee APP press after, it's on my list.
I didn't know the primers fell out of the bottom center cavity of the base. I should have paid closer attention and research on it. I normally do, but jumped the gun on this.

My neck sizing dies of various cartridges... used them once upon a time. Now I'd feel bad to sell them to someone.

I have to disagree….. there’s no bigger advocate to F/L sizing than me!…. I love Eriks video and it make me laugh every time I watch it however doing some brass prep work a neck or collet die can be handy and useful, now if I can only pick one of course it would be a custom honed F/L die but I like having options. Also see no one likes a concentricity tool, now that useless Hornaday one I would agree but when I build a rifle or buy one I like to check fired brass to see if it’s in fact concentric now I could use simple v blocks and mic but why?… I have a old Sinclair and it works fine, when I buy new dies I check to see how much runout it induces or not…. Now granted once that’s done it collects dust as it doesn’t need checked again.
Mandrels…..they use to be popular now everyone hates them I don’t know why?… I have and do use them for some brass prep work or figuring out some issues from time to time…. Do I use them for My Day to day loading….. no but they do have there places along with pin gauges
Cheap Lee press?….. very useful why deprime with your multi hundred dollar presses. I use a rcbs partner I think it’s called… it’s a useless little aluminum press. Also I have a Lee hand press and it’s my preferred way to deprime why watching Gunsmoke on tv
Rcbs lube pads?….. I have to agree there one stage better than nothing at all

I don’t have one, but this looks pretty ridiculous!
