Man that's fast. Thanks

[stellbo]

Good thinking, great video.

[Mtnshooter1]

I like it !

[MrDrBackJack]

Very kool setup.

[kdiver58]

Outstanding !

[DennisH8706]

wow, trimming brass with a wilson trimmer is such a pain in the ass! It takes forever. Plus your hand is throbbing from holding the case in place.

[twal1011]

Nice!!!

[rwseemore]

how did you get the cases to be held firmly, I am using a lee trimmer set and it;s a pain as the case sometimes spins. I like your quick release set up but can't figure out how you did it.

Did you make the 3 way cutter that trims and chamfers and deburs all in one?? I have been watching this vid, I have literally thousands of brass I have to do ever so often, This would be awsome. Can you give more details to this please? I have a Lyman Lathe Trimmer. Looking at building a new trimmer with the aid of a friend with a lathe to turn on...

[dukelden]

I was just taking a break from the pain staking standard method, when I jumped on line to find a better way and found this..........woohoo!!!.......­.made my day, I even have that trimmer. I am going shopping. Thanks for sharing and sparing me tendinitis and more blisters.

[tripwire1000]

look out detroit/assembly line

[Depdog747]

Thanks, I see what it is now, you have a screw driver installed where the "T" handle for tightening the collet used to be. I wonder if the lever and plate would work better.

[Depdog747]

Is that just the stock case holder on that trimmer? I can't seem to fine anyting that looks or works like that.

Thanks

It's the older model with the collet type shellholder. The new one has the lever with a plate type shell holder.

[mycaddigo]

when he is trimming, does he just eye it up and know when to stop and measure later?? I'm very new to all this and need advise.

[doctorjared]

The trimmer is adjusted so that it will not trim cases too short.

[Hellraiser724]

@mycaddigo Look at his drill bit, there is a stop there that as he said below adjusts so it's not too short. It's an excellent tool to use if you're short on cash.

[mifslim]

haha, now you should add the steel wool to polish the case somehow on there and you skip the tumbling part too! Great stuff! great stuff!

[dcbaisden]

great trimmer. where can I get one of those cutters to fit a lyman case trimmer with simular case holder?

Dave

[crackawise]

SO what did this setup cost ya ll up?

[bryschopper]

Sweet, you have inspired me to make something similar, thanks

[bigtodd12159]

Now that's thinking with your dipstick jimmy. I remember the good old days using a Forster case trimmer and having a black circle on my palm for about a week after.

[TexasStraightShooter]

Nice set up!!!!!

I hate to trim cases!!!!!

That looks fairly painless!

[atc250r18]

Awsome, that would eliminate alot of blisters

[disturbedone5009]

When I get my reloading gear I'm going to borrow your set up.

[ireload2]

Nice setup but watch out for the spinning cutter.

I have been doing something like this with a Forster but it is not nearly as fast and as efficient.

[ricklogreco]

This looks like a brilliant setup! I am assuming that this would require the "older" RCBS Trim pro? Any idea where I can find it and anything else I might need to copy your setup?

[sdself1]

I gotta say this is really cool!

[POGIE151]

i love it !!

[testbooster]

brilliant!!!!!!!

[cz40p]

Nice vid dude - thanks for posting this. I've been looking for a faster way to trim brass than what I've been doing with a powered screwdriver and Lee ball trimmer.

I'm copying your setup for sure.

[armedtotheteeth1974]

i do the same damn thing,. but use a cordless drill, as it stops faster after trigger release

[doctorjared]

Yeah I need a cordless. Since the video I've made another brass chute out of some thin steel sheet metal to replace the cardboard. It works like a charm and just hooks right under the trimmer so setup is a snap.

[domstriker]

What's your setup here? What tools are you using?

[doctorjared]

RCBS Trim pro (the old model with the collet type case holder), power adapter for trim pro, and trim pro 3-way cutter.
