Improved Lock Stud #90110

Post by buckeye43210 »

Lee should copy the copycats by extending the quarter inch shank on the LEE lock stud (part number 90110). The Smartreloader XT - Multi Purpose Lock Stud is an example.

This would make their lock stud work better with cordless screwdrivers...

Great idea and I'm surprised that Lee hasn't expanded the use of their tools.

Isn't SmartReloader the outfit that does the copycat presses? I wonder where they are located as I used to see their stuff online when I searched for Lee products?

Yes, Smartreloader is the outfit with the copycat presses. They are still out there if you know where to look.

For the other tools that don't require the shell holder lock stud, Redding sells their Primer Pocket Uniformer Tool Power Adapter, or you can use an 8-32 hex standoff.

If your cordless screwdriver has a magnet to hold the bits and you use a non-ferris material like aluminum for your adapter, you may have to cut the standoff down so the magnet in the screwdriver can "stick" to the shaft of the steel tool or you can insert a set screw in the bottom of the standoff.

More to follow...

Happy Hacking!
