Lee Breech Lock Challenger press wooden lever ball

Post by PepNYC »

I've had my breech lock press for about 3 months and the wooden ball at the end of the lever fell off already. Tapped it back on with a small hammer, fell off again. wth? Any suggestions?

Use a little JB Weld and you'll be good to go.

If you do not want to make it forever fix with JB Weld you could put a wrap or two of electrical tape on the handle end and tap the ball back on.
