You can still hear the bass moving around and if you are running it fast you can hear the motor but it’s no worse than the crappy one. The joy of not stopping every 5th round is still worth it!

I don’t shoot 300 and I really don’t want to get into another caliber. I used to load .380, 9, 40 and 45. Dropped all bar 9. Used to shoot a lot more so the Evo was/is good as you said for bulk. I have a 750 for processing, might sell my Evo! If I lived in a free state where cans are legal for regular humans I’d start doing 300, but for now I’m stuck in Commichusetts! But, I have a few .223 and enjoy shooting them so I figured I’d start reading for it. However, I also have a 7mm and a few 303 so the Giraud will work for all. We’ll see how it goes….whenever it shows up.

I liked it so much I returned it! A good friend of mine and a reloading instructor said about 2 years ago to buy once and cry once...so I ordered a Giraud power trimmer. I needed to see the Mk7 one as I started the conversation with Misty over 3 years ago about it when it was still an idea at Mk7, but once I got it I knew I did not want to limit myself to one caliber (without a bunch of set up each time) so I got what I should have 2 years ago when I told my reloading friend about it and he said "just buy a Giraud".

Never mind. Apparently trim dies are undersized! More later, but I think I figured it out.

I just got my Power Trim Xpress and I need help setting it up. I’ll be using it for .223 so I bought the Lyman Pro Trim die for .223, but the end mill Mk7 sent is .3755 dia. There is no way that mill is going though the hole in top of the trim die as the case is certainly not coming out the top. BTW I’m setting up Hornady lock n load 223 REM Modified Case. So either I’m missing something big or they mailed me the wrong end mill. Of course this is assuming the mill is supposed to enter into the top hole of the trim die. If anyone has set up for .223 please ping me. Thanks, Alan

After playing around some more it I can’t see how it would work in this orientation as the channel shaped part inside hits the 38mm sorters! Really wise the OP of the entire thread would post some photos of the assembly for all parts to the shared Google drive.

The 38mm sorters fit better in this orientation. Not sure if it’s correct but I figured I’d share my findings.

Nice progress! You've convinced me to keep going on mine! Please keep posting the assemble photos. On mine I think I'm going to see it I can teach it to simply sort brass based by caliber (.380, 9. 223 and 45 is possible). Not sure about the 45 but its easy enough to sort it with the (regular) sorting trays. I'm currently printing the second Sorter 38 mm hose adapter as I initially only printed one.

I have not completed as this thread ran dry. I asked a few months ago for instructions as the OP mentioned putting some up but no word yet. BTW Prusa came out with a larger printer. I was considering buying one but don’t use the one I have enough to justify upgrading. So far my printer is working out very well with no issues.

I have this one but the biggest part is not that big…https://www.prusa3d.com/en/category/original-prusa-i3-mk3s/

I have all the parts printed and the nano plus three servos in hand. I read through everything on the g drive the other day and noticed something that said see photos for assembling the 3D parts. Did I miss the photos or are they posted somewhere in the thread? Thanks

On a second look the printer must have hick-upped as a few layers close to the bottom we’re all dogged to the right. I started re-printing (as material is cheap), so we’ll see how they do one at a time.

Good and I kicked off the other part the other day....so they should be done.

Thanks...ordered

Will this Nano work? https://www.ebay.com/itm/255142136819?hash=item3b67a80bf3:g:JMMAAOSwhAthRzhs Figured it would be easier to screw in the wires. Keep in mind I have zero knowledge or the electronic end of this project. Thanks
