Wheels up in 10..later hoz

Did you dismember a wampa with your light sabre on the way in?

LOL!

We are above 0 here at least. Glad I sold my truck! I don't think shed be starting up in this weather!

[HoneyBadger]

Well, initial impressions of Worlds Finest Trimmer .223 Rem

1) You don't need a 1/2" drill for the .223. It has a 5/16" End Mill as the cutting tool, so a 3/8" works just fine.

2) Holding the drill and the brass is not the best way to do this. Need to use a vice to hold the drill, turn it on and then you can run your brass.

3) Setting it up to cut 1.745" is a PITA. I used a piece of brass that was 1.745", followed the directions to set it up. Grabbed a piece of brass that was 1.762", trimmed it, marked the rim with a sharpie to see if it was trimming any further, trimmed it and only sharpie on half of the rim came off, so I trimmed it again and spun the case, same thing. Okay, that piece of brass is at 1.745". It measured 1.755". Not even CLOSE to 1.745". There is definitely a trick to setting it up or something, because that piece of brass would never trim below 1.755" But, I don't have the time now to figure out a better way of setting it up, so, this is all the review you're getting for the moment HB.

Well, that's not really what I was hoping to hear... I think you have a bad first impression, because you have never used the $7 Lee trimmer. [ROFL1]


I'll be looking forward to more details when you figure out how to read the directions [Poke]

[HoneyBadger]

Did you dismember a wampa with your light sabre on the way in?
No, it was oogleing me from the other side of the parkin lot, but I was able to get in safely. I think it is waiting by my car for the end of the day. [Peep]

I just spent 1hr45min on hold with Bellco Credit Union Visa Card dept to have a 1min convo. I didn't want to leave a voicemail because in my experience those things never call you back, or they call you back in a week when the info is no longer needed.

Not even bloodsucking Anthem Blue Cross was that bad. For shame, Bellco.

SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I missed the Camel video yesterday. Knew this day was gonna suck.

Oh ha. Ha. Very funny.

I followed the directions. My brass that was 1.745" was inserted while the cutter lock screws were loosened and the cutter slid back. Then, slowly moved the cutter forward until it touched the brass face, then tightened the screws and proceeded to trim.

The videos explaining the setup did it that way too. I won't have time tonight to play with it at all, but I should be able to spend at most 2 hours on it tomorrow morning and will repeat the setup with fresh brass and attempt to clamp down my drill, then trim 10 pieces of brass that are currently over 1.76" and record the results (how much they were trimmed etc).

The directions say if it doesn't work, your shoulders can be at a different spec than the WFT tool is setup for and to send them 3-5 pieces of your sized brass and the cutter, but frankly, I don't want to pay shipping to do that. If this ends up being the case, I think I might return the WFT and get something else.

I hate how a regular size bag of Peanut M&M's feels like a fun size bag.

Based on numbers alone, there are half to a third of the Peanut M&M's per bag than a bag of Milk Chocolate M&M's.

Unacceptable. If I want peanuts, I won't want the number to be reduced!!

Perhaps I should write to M&M Mars and explain how cheated I feel.

So what, do you just buy peanuts AND regular M&M's and pop one of each in your mouth? Hmm. that actually might just be feasible. But then I'd need to count each to make sure I have enough peanuts and M&M's.

I didn't even know this until today. I've always been excited by the olympics in the past, but this year, I just can't devote enough care to the matter - too much other stuff going on.

Yeah... We're working through some issues right now that center around her career change (she is quitting her job because she doesn't like the people that she works with and she doesn't feel like she is being a good mother to our son). Obviously money is going to be an issue when we cut out household income in half for an indefinite amount of time... She better figure things out and get a decent job before next Christmas, or we'll be moving out of our brand new house and into something much smaller, older, and in a shadier part of town. We bought this house and made other financial decisions based on the jobs that we both currently have and are guaranteed to have for another 3 years, but she is calling it quits early, so all my financial planning, along with our savings and investments, is about to get flushed down the can.

That being said... happy wife = happy life and she just isn't happy in her current work situation. In fact, she is downright miserable. :(

This is brass that I had previously tumbled in walnut media with some brass polish in there. I thought it was fairly clean. For this batch, I put it distilled water, dawn dish soap (about three drops), and a little pinch of lemishine.

I looked into the NFA route, but don't have any trustee's (ie kids to put down) and if I understood the process, putting my wife down wasn't enough.

[BuffCyclist]

HB, good luck with your funds situation. Is there a chance your wife can find a work from home type situation to at least lessen the loss of funds a bit?

We're looking at having my wife stop working when we have a kid, I have a budget for it with only my income. It's doable, but probably won't be fun. My wife wants to stay home (otherwise we'd pay almost her entire income to childcare, which the local daycares are just druggies in rehab playing with babies, and I can say that knowing it as a fact), and I think it'd be good for our baby. She's scared of putting that entire burden on me though, and is currently looking for various work at home options. I keep subtly dropping the idea of getting an FFL and doing transfers, but not sure how many I'd actually end up doing and if it'd be worth the hassle.

[HoneyBadger]

Yeah, we're open to all options right now. She just can't keep doing her current job for much longer... It's literally destroying her.

[Great-Kazoo]

The plastic / resin tub of the lowes unit outweighs the price difference, when it comes to potential brass damage. IIRC rondog used a HF mixer and did some alteration to it.

[BuffCyclist]

Interesting. Just ran a quick test with the WFT on 5 cases after setting it up again after setting up the tool with one 1.745" FC Case.

Two of the cases went to 1.740", while the other 3 wouldn't go below 1.750" (even with trimming them 3 times). Looked at the headstamps, the 2 that went low were FC and LC. The 3 that were high were RP. How peculiar. I hypothesize that the shoulders of different brass manufacturers will be different and therefore, the final trim length will not be the same amongst differing manufacturers. Let's proceed with an EXPERIMENT!

Pulled out 20 cases of varying length, then sorted by headstamp and trimmed them all in 1 go (ie drill still running the entire time).

Out of 9 RP -- 1.748" Average Post Trimming = +0.003" Deviation from Target
Out of 4 Win - 1.748" Average Post Trimming = +0.003" Deviation from Target
Out of 6 LC - 1.743" Average Post Trimming = -0.002" Deviation from Target
Out of 1 Win - 1.751" Post Trimming = +0.006" Deviation from Target

My hypothesis was correct based on this low sample experiment. In order to fully verify my results, I need to analyze a larger sample volume. So, I will sort through and find 25 of each headstamp, measure, trim, measure and calculate deviation from nominal (ie 1.745").

Stepping back, this isn't that surprising as different manufacturers of brass use different molds/dies/processes/etc to form their brass. I just didn't realize there would be this much of a deviation. If this is the case, then it looks like I'll be sorting all of my rifle brass by headstamp, trimming and keeping separated. It will make it easier to pick out cases of similar length for precision loads.

Stay tuned for another report.

[HoneyBadger]

Thanks for the good report BC. It's nice to see things examined scientifically. I guess its a good thing that I've been sorting my brass by headstamp.

[BuffCyclist]

That's all I have time for now, I just ran through 25 of RP and FC, here are results:

Out of 25 RP - Average = 1.748” - Std Dev = 0.004”
Out of 25 FC - Average = 1.742” - Std Dev = 0.002”

I'm attributing the smaller standard deviation of the FC cases due to my setting up the WFT for a 1.745" FC case, so the shoulders will be the same. My guess is that if I were to setup the WFT to a 1.745" case of each headstamp when trimming only that headstamp, the results will become more consistent across the board. I'm keeping a spreadsheet and will update it as I trim cases. I'll probably end up starting a full thread on it in the reloading forum, but not for a while.

In other news, I was watching a video of a rocket launching a satellite into orbit, and got to explain to the rest of the crowd why the rocket plume changed shape, and how that impacts thrust efficiency. This is one of the reasons why we do staging (the other main reason for staging is to dump the excess weight of the empty boosters and rocket components).

Yes, I'm a rocket scientist wannabe. :D

Went and did another 5k last night....snapped a pic. I look like I'm out in Alaska! At least they are getting easier!

Are you running? I need to keep up better...

[mcjhr]

Howdy doody hoz.

Also, hello!

[BuffCyclist]

Just briefly priced out airfare for my work trip to Chile (will be reimbursed in full for it) and the rough cost is $6k roundtrip. [Eek1]

I'm going down twice this year, twice next and then a 6mo stay the following year. That's a LOT of travel expenditures!

On the flip side, that's a LOT of cash back opportunities with my credit card! [WooHoo]

[bogie]

Man, you travel too much! Least the weather is nice again, although it'll be sloppy on the ground.

Lemme guess.......Idaho falls?

Well this isn't normal for me. I typically travel every few months for various reasons. I had to cram in a lot of travel into a few short months so I'd have it done for a deadline. It will be chill after this...

[mcjhr]

Are you running? I need to keep up better...

Yeah, I haven't ran since HS. Went the past 2 nights just to see if I could take the cold, guess I can. I like running, it builds physical and mental toughness.

[mcjhr]

Well this isn't normal for me. I typically travel every few months for various reasons. I had to cram in a lot of travel into a few short months so I'd have it done for a deadline. It will be chill after this...

That's good. Travel stresses me out. When we moved here I had to fly back to LAX to get the car. 2 weeks later fly back to Hawai'i to get exs dad (stroke). Flew into Hawaii and out on the same day. No thanks!

JFC! At least there is good food! 6mo is a long time!

[BuffCyclist]

Yes, 6mo is a long time. But they pay for my ENTIRE stay down there, food/lodging/rental-car etc. That's on top of my standard salary. And they're also considering sending my wife down with me for that trip since its so long.

[HoneyBadger]

Dude, doesn't everyone know that?! Its from the different layers in the atmosphere...
Just atmospheric pressure, really.

Good for you to get your heart in better shape. [Awesom]

[BuffCyclist]

Wait a minute, somethings DEFINITELY wrong with that airfare, just priced it out directly from American Airlines and its only $2k round trip from nearest airport to final destination...

[brutal]

I'm home for 3 more days then out again. After the next trip I'll be halfway through this craziness. Unfortunately I'm not going anywhere high on the desirability list. But meh, I'll make the best of it.

I just booked my next trip. Back to FL end of the month.

Hopefully, this time I won't be sick.

That's not gonna be good for the blue-hairs during drive time.

Yeah, rocket science really isn't that complicated... The phrase "it's not rocket science, you know" is from back in the days when we were still trying to figure it out and every other rocket would blow up on the launch pad.

Good for you to get your heart in better shape. [Awesom]

Thanks. It's about time I done something!

Once a year, my wife brings up doing a mission thing for the hospital she works at. They cover in country expenses and pay her salary, but we'd have to foot the travel bill and I'd be mostly fawked for work unless I had good intarwebz and had some remote projects.

OBC, how you doin?

Lobbed from my electronic ball and chain

[OtterbatHellcat]

Thanks for the wet cleaning vid, Belly. Wow on the extra shit that came out of there Twice.

I dig reloading stuff, AND taco pictures from work, AND that damn camel on Wednesdays.

..and it was interesting to read about the flight differences, the case trimming experiment, and some other stuff.

[OtterbatHellcat]

Yo, Buffalobo.....I'm chillin after a shitty week, wif left town on her trip, and I'm a bachelor for 8 days.

What ya got on your side, Brother?

[OtterbatHellcat]

I feel decent enough....saw Bert today and he replaced the sights on my other glock....we talked about getting a different upper for my dpms.

[OtterbatHellcat]

Sure was nice to experience some near 40 degree temperatures today.

I bet 25 degrees there really jacks up the program. You've mentioned sitting on the overpass when is snows, just for the entertainment value.. lol.

Alright, I got some domestic duties to perform........ I'll probably be in and out all night.

Heya OBC!

Is your home situation improved at all? [Beer]

[HoneyBadger]

Sure was nice to experience some near 40 degree temperatures today.
The high temperature at my house today was 44 degrees warmer than the high yesterday. 51 degrees warmer than the high on Wednesday. 63 degrees warmer than the low on Wednesday.

Maybe some alone time for tall will help?

Bacon is good!

Howdy Ho's !!!

OBC, you still thinking about moving some of your NASCAR stuff? Talked to my cousin last weekend about possibly givng you some info on whether it's worth it to sell right now.

It's there, but it isn't, and yet it IS undeniable.....like a brick in the face.

I'm bored HB.....and drinking a little bit, okay a little more.....just chillin.

When's your next off road excursion?

Hell, I'd better play some music, or some pool, before I get into any trouble.

..and shit.

I told these people a week ago their system was too full. NOW it stopped (as designed) @ >98% and they want it cleaned up and restarted tonight (test system.)

Hint: If you increase storage on your production system to accomodate growth and then try to copy that data to a test system that WASN'T UPGRADED, you will run out of space.

If they would just buy the new system and SAN we spec'd 6 months ago, this would not be an issue.

I have a very hard time when people don't take my advice as a SME. I went to a meeting (with an elephant at the head) and an eagle said something that was wrong. The implications of their wrong-ness would affect the forward motion of a constellation, and not a small one.....so I had to speak up.

That eagle tore me up one side and down the other.

The he asked me what I had to say for myself. I told him, "Don't be wrong, please, Sir."

what I really wanted to say was that line from the movie Collateral: "Max! I do this for a living!!"

The lower is very rarely an issue. Having 'duty grade' uppers is what's important. EVERY brand can be made into a duty grade gun. I treated my first bushmaster like an old jeep: when something broke, I upgraded that part to something heavy duty. After shooting the piss out of your rifle, you'll figure out what it is that you want and you'll do it the right way.... Personal experience.
