Can anyone make me a 50BMG wheel for a Ken Light annealer?

HA ! HA ! Yeah, I think I'm going back to "Steel Chips" and leave "Messy" aluminum alone for awhile. Hope to get holes drilled next week, if so will follow up with final pictures. Great Weekend everyone.

Nutz...well if you won't make me one...what will you charge me to anneal my 50 brass?
Looking at @jaclthr s pictures of making a 50 wheel for a KLA, it's a lot of machine time and a lot of material.

Financially it would be better to use something else for 50 cal. I use a Ballistic Edge Mfg 360 http://www.ballisticedgemfg.com/model-360.html

For 50 brass, I change out the torch heads to Bernzomatic JT539T Swirl Flame Brazing Torch https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000WH2WIO/?tag=accuratescom-20

There are some other "tips" I can share if you like. PM me for more information.

Soon I will be trying molten salts. Lee Precision Melter https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00162UONY/?tag=accuratescom-20 and Salt Bath Annealing kit from Ballistic Creations http://ballisticrecreations.ca/

or

PM me about me doing it for you.
 
Hello Guys,

Finally got this thing running. I changed to MAPP gas for hotter flame due to the much thicker brass and the way I did the outer ring for the holes, I had to grind away a little of the base ( About .100 ) to let the brass drop through. I will know better should I try this again, What A Mess Though. Final pictures to follow.

Thanks
