In the article below they talk about a trimmer being developed. Does anyone know the availability of this?

I have the neck turner lathe setup, and bought it in 2013. I'm pretty sure it is still available.

I wanted to know about the availability of the trimmer mentioned in the article. Thanks though
 
I got an email back within a few hours on a Saturday two weeks back when I had a question I had about the new 21 st Century concentricity gauge I had just received. Amazing gauge by the way, just rolled 30 rounds I made on it. They suck, to varying degrees. But at least now I know which ones. Ha ha. It's a great diagnostic tool and started a literal landslide of information gathering. I am interseted in other products from 21st Century, including a trimmer if they got one.

You could call them and ask, I wouldn't email them as you'll most likely will never get a reply back.

I emailed them last week and called them today and left a message. I became inpatient and posted the question here.
 
After reading this thread, I just called John, whom answered the phone.

We spoke for about ten minutes. Great guy and it was nice to thank him in person for the concentricity gauge and his promt email over the weekend that helped me better utilize it.

He is still working on the tooling for the trimmer. So if that means anything to you, sounds to me like he is definately interested in making a trimmer at some point. His mini lathe will likely be my next purchase.

Good deal, thanks for calling. One of things that has attracted me to the 21st Century trimmer is the ability to build up to a pretty versatile machine, ie neck turning, trimming. I can't remember if he has a reamer for it, I shouldn't need it though.
 
Update... trimmer/end prep tooling will soon be available:D according to 21st Century.

I’m thinking it would make a nice Xmas present:rolleyes:
