The CZickness XLIII prepping for winter.

Morning WT, CM
I think the storms woke our son up. I'm still keeping him company. I'm hoping to get more sleep.

The Dillon arrived and my mind went into a time warp for the rest of the day, before I knew it, it was 9pm.

I didn't order an $80 riser mount for the press, because I had a fresh piece of 2x6 laying around that needed purpose. So I worked my magic and attached it to my bench using two existing holes where my drill press goes (and can be swapped out in 5 minutes).

After I got it set up, I got the daughter out in the garage and found out she was a natural at de-priming brass. She asked for more and more, so I let her go to town on it. After that, I started getting ideas of building her a rifle and the two of us learning to reload for it together.

I had a section of 2x6 leftover and wanted to make a little stand for the extra tool heads anyways, so I used that. I used some 6-14 AWG wire nuts that I had leftover from the garage heater install, some large nuts and 3" drywall screws. I gave myself room for 2 more tool heads down the road when I add calibers.

The press is worth every penny. It's well made, solid and buttery smooth.

Morning, all!


Barb's brother, Bill, is down in FL and has pneumonia again. I won't describe all the reasons he's had it so often in the last two years, but suffice to say, his lungs are tired and we could use your prayers for him. Looks serious at this moment.

Thanks! I'll be painting the entire garage and workbench in the spring, putting a few coats of something on that press mount is on the list too.

Morning folks!

Congrats on the reloader setup Spicey. One thing that I added to my 550 was this handy light. It’s been worth every penny.
