SELLING Powder Trickler Spoon $20

[ELR LVR]

Maybe this may seem like a silly post to offer

but we all have our silly or cool little gadgets
this is a constant used must for me after utilizing it at my bench for many years

So let me qualify this with,
I am offering custom hand made powder trickling spoons.
You will use this little powder spoon,
I have several tricklers, and even an electric unit
that I never use, sitting on the shelf collecting dust
after I made this little spoon for myself years ago
I have seen or heard of people making similar items but
---
Now I know you're thinking, well I could make my own...
...how much is your time worth? This takes me a certain amount of time to make by hand.
But works so well, so smoothly, so fast to trickle with in small amounts and increments of powder
it is more of a hassle to load, a trickler, then have to clean it out of all the powder granules before changing to a new powder etc.
that with this spoon, you always have the powder you are using right in front of you, in the hopper
---
To Use:
simply dip into the powder pan, lightly roll the spoon to the angle you wish to trickle at, and lightly tap it with your finger.
it feeds smoothly and predictably, but may have a short learning curve of maybe 5 mins to a half hour.
5 minutes if you used to be a smoker and know how to flick ashes off your cigarette haha
The handle is made from things I have handy in the shop such as .125" alum tig rod, stainless rod, brass rod, cartridge cases for the spoon etc. and will look pretty much the same dimensions as this one.
just something quick and handy I am offering

$20 Shipped

hold at an angle toward you then tap
once finished, dump excess back into your powder hopper
if you need a source to dip from, I dip from my powder hopper into the pan
---
For fastest operation, I dump charges slightly heavy by 0.2 grns, then scoop off the excess

Showing my powder tricklers that collect dust now
Including my inegnius home built model that I was desperate, low on money, had a wife and newborn kid
so went into the garage to see what I could cook up for a trickler
and found a 12 volt test light
An Aluminum airbag cap for a base,
A broken telescopic antenna for the tube to overhang my powder pan
a swageloc tubing slip on fitting for the handle
and my favorite pistol case (44 Magnum) to cap the handle for some grip
To top it off, a Bic pen spring in the tip to dampen the speed at which the powder trickles operating like a feedscrew to trickle one granule of H-1000 at a time
---
and it worked better than the other two, because it was custom made and refined.
Sorry that trickling unit is not for sale
So for me to give up using one of my pride and joy inventions of ingenuity
to favor a simple little perfectly sized and engineered spoon
is a lot for me. but also says a lot for the value of the trickler spoon
Since as i mention, that little spoon is so expedient and efficient, I've used nothing else for years now.
Thanks for your consideration
