Does anyone know where I could find a picture of Lyman's tool for hand turning these role crimping heads? I'd like to try to make one.

nialmac,
Here's a picture of the old Lyman Ideal 'Star' Crimper. Great price in 1956 for sure! Lyman again making these machines would be a thought? They use the same 'head' as we are discussing by the way. Good luck on your project.
Oh, and I almost forgot to mention that Lyman's Product Development just now sent me an e-mail asking you folks to kindly cease and desist with the orders for the few remaining 12 ga. roll crimp heads, as they sold out of them in short order this morning upon opening. They 'Thank You' for your interest, and assured me they'd keep an eye on this thread which is being posted on various boards. And 'Thanks' from me to all of you so far that have given input for the hopeful return of this nifty tool.
All Best,
Rob
