    Annealing

    I tried to buy and ship the Giraud to the uk but federal laws will not allow the sale of automated reloading machines to outside the USA .
    I did buy the bench source and had it shipped over without any problems I am very happy with it .its a very well made machine that's easy to set up and use .
    There is a chap that makes the auto powder trickle who does make a machine but as one offs he contacted me after I did a similar post
    it and um covers most problems in life

    I am not an engineer and most parts came from the bay
    I could take a few photos of the works if anyone is interested

    Steve, awesome job.

    I already have a Benchsource but if you ever decided to make a few of these I would be interested, price dependent of course

    Steve, if that is your machine hats off to you. Its the best design Ive seen and Im getting the bits together to make one.
    What is the push pull solenoid you have used? I got one but it was a little limp wristed!
    I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy!

    Hi Furrybean

    The push solenoid in a central locking solenoid from maplins I think it was less than a tenner I used the linkage rod that came with it and a small spring to return,as it was a little random with it's stop position.
    The ferrel in the case I passed the rod through is a alluminium pot rivet if I recall a 5mm x 20mm of the type that does not leave the broken steel centre pin in.
    Hope this is of help

    You can find Lubo on facebook

    If you are reloading several calibres you may need more than one disk, which brings the cost up, but still worth it.

    or if you want one built in the UK, where one disk does all calibres, try mick miller on pigeon watch.
