Bench Mounted Priming Tool

Not sure what you mean by backside.
The case sits like this in the universal jaws.

Gotcha now, that’s what I was guessing.
Beautiful base that you made for it!

Does it look like this?

Aligns primers anvil-side up and mates with the Primer Feed Tube for quick loading in the Co-Ax Primer Seater . The Primer Tube Loader aligns all primers with j

Yep! That's the one. Looks like they took it to market. It really works nice filling tubes.

Yep, that’ll work.

I hollowed out the base under the wedge and added about 12oz of #9 shot in epoxy to give it a little more heft.

That is nice. Thanks for chiming in on this thread.

Someone sells these with square stock as the base- maybe Sinclair?

What diameter stock did you use for your holder? Do you like it or would you use a different size?

Inline Fabrication has a base for Forster bench prime

Thanks but I'm asking spike-55 about the holders for the Sinclair tool that he made.

I'm already second guessing my decision on choosing the Frankford Arsenal Perfect Seat Hand Primer. The wife wants in on helping me and I think a bench mounted priming tool would work best for her. I really like the concept of using pick up tubes being able to do 100 at a time. What all are you guys using?

Derracco Engineering (maker of the Ugly Annealer) makes a primer that mounts on your press. It uses the flat style shell holders and the primer depth can be adjusted for consistency. The RCBS bench mounted tool also works well for bulk use.

1 1/2 round stock works great. If you use 1 3/4 you have to offset bore the hole to allow for the lever to have full throw - really no big deal. Just was easier to mount in the lathe and bore out and then mill out the slot and drill the tap holes. Just FYI you will notice the pin that holds the lever is a little proud of the housing. I chose to bore bigger rather than to buff off the pin to perfect 7/8 size of the primer tool.

got maybe 25.00 bucks in material and I bought it off amazon rather than search around

Thanks, I appreciate the detailed info. I have both 1 1/2 and 1 3/4 in the shop already. I have tons of base material so I’m good there too. I was leaning towards the 1 1/2 and will probably go that way.
