Production has started

[Mike in Oregon]

Today I was finally able to produce after doing some last minute organization.

I decided to dedicate a spot for the new Henderson, rather than store it when not in use. Less likely to damage it was my thought.

I also will be interchanging the Wilson arbor press and RCBS Auto Prime using the Inline Fabrication mount by using two small c-clamps. This will put everything pretty much at eye level.

I setup the Henderson with the 22 cutter and dialed it in and did a run of 100 pcs. Very precise and accurate. Took some time getting use to the collet as far as load, drop and reload. But I'll get it.

After the 1K pcs of 223 brass is trimmed, I will then start the priming process. I need to do 1K pcs of 17FB, 20P and 223. Then in April I plan to start load development.

That set up makes mine look like something from the dark ages.

Looking good no doubt.

Currently reloading in my living room (I’m a bachelor, plus my dog doesn’t like going down my basement steps). I contemplate moving everything upstairs into one of my spare rooms frequently.
Really nice setup though.

I’m currently set up in the basement, and I’ve also been thinking of moving to an upstairs bedroom. Problem is I’m not a bachelor….lol

Takes time to sort out what setups work or don't work for yourself. My scales are on the one bench, almost everything else is on the other one. Have two Inline mounts now, 5 different items mounted to them, 2 trimmers and concentricity tool on one 1sqft board. Still working on it,, have been for 45 yrs, every once in a while I get ambitious and change something. Do the same thing with tools and etc in the garage every once in a while, get a bug in the rug to change things around.

Your bench is way too neat

You're gonna have to put that car outside soon mate, its taking up valuable reloading space.

Just plumbed for the annealer

“Fire in the Hole..!”
Not sure I would want a flame in my reloading area…
That however is not a problem with my AMP… and way more accurate annealing.

Did you get the new Gen 4

 

[ISS]

I do not know how you find anything in a reloading area like that...

 

[Mike in Oregon]

Did you get the new Gen 4

No. The Gen 4 accommodates the largest cartridges.

No. The Gen 4 accommodates the largest cartridges.

Thanks for the update.

Is the gen 4 out yet? Henderson said end of month I would love to see what the Chang is they said it’s gonna be completely different than the GEN 3 and the RCBS
And very nice set up you have

I suspect it's called a garage.

Nice setup, Mike; though I agree with the concern about the annealer proximity to the rest of the process. That said, it also sounds like you're time-isolating each step, so maybe it's not really a concern.

Beautiful and well thought out to boot. Whatta Hobby!
