Does anyone know if Wilson makes a three-way trimmer that fits their case trimmer or is there one out there that will work with Wilson's trimmer ?

If you decide to try it please let me know if it will fit. Thanks.

Bill, I looked at the tool on the Forster and now remembered why I didn't try it on the Wilson.
I recall that when that 3-way first came out and I got one, that even on the Forster I had to swap parts around to accommodate the length for certain longer cases versus shorter ones.
I can't be sure what you are trimming but I am guessing that the issues with the length of the tooling would also affect the Wilson tooling.
To be on the safe side, we should ask either or both outfits if this will work for the case length you are trying to trim.
The Forster uses a collet tool to reference the case body, and the Wilson uses either the micrometer or plain base shaft, plus the body tool. Adding in the length of the three way cutter may end up being too long for the Wilson tooling depending on the case length.
What case are you trimming?
