What speed does it need to run at ?

Homeless,

My drill press is usually set at 300-400 rpm for my rust-bluing carding, which seems to work just fine for roll-crimping also. No heat build-up.

Gents,

'Last Call' for comments or to express interest in the possibility of Lyman Products once again reproducing their popular roll crimp heads. This coming Monday, I will print hard copies of all your posts and get them off with a cover letter to Lyman's Products Development Div. for their review.

Lyman will then have to decide if it warrants their tooling up for what may be a limited demand item(?). That's why I was hoping that a limited run might have potential......but that will be for them to determine. We certainly got their attention with your ordering frenzy of the remaining dozen roll-crimpers in 12 ga. recently discovered in inventory!

At any rate, 'Thanks' to those of you who did, and those who may still choose to respond - as it is appreciated. If we're lucky, the 'Cadillac' of roll-crimpers may not be totally dead yet. I will get back to you all with the outcome, just as soon as I have some news.


Sincerely,


Rob Harris

I'd buy a 12, 16 & 20 head.

If they do only 12-16-20, we would still be better off than we are now. I'm still in for 10-12-16-20-28-.410, assuming price is reasonable.

I now have the 16 head and would like to purchase the 12.

I'm waiting for my 12 gauge but I'd buy another in 16 if they had it. I'd also buy the hand cranked device if they would make it again.

I'm "all in" for a SET (one of each) in 10/12/16/20/24/28 gauge! It would be great if they could make them all and sell them as a set for a discounted price! J. Stephens

Hello
I would like a SET also
Thanks
Mike

Rob,

I'd like one in 16, 20, 28 and .410. I was lucky and got one of the NOS 12ga ones after seeing the post on this forum.

Thank you for seeing this through.
