Default RE: Help for the RCBS case trimmer

do it all the time with my dewalt cordless... on long shells i have enough length on the spindle to get the chuck on it... (i have a 1/2 inch chuck btw)... otherwise i cut the head off of a shoulder bolt purchased through McMaster-Carr for a few bucks.... screwed it into the threaded hole in the end of the spindle where the handle mounts... then put my drill on it... really saves my right hand and some time... Basically i have to use the shoulder bolt for any cases 38 Special and shorter... 357 is RIGHT at the limit....

I also use the RCBS deburr tool... i can JUST get my jaws to grip the lil tit that sticks out of the outside deburring end... so i can use my drill to deburr and chamfer the inside of the cases in quick fashion...

I drilled out the bolt hole and retapped it to a 1/4 " standard thread bolt. cut the head off a 1" long bolt and installed it in the newly threaded hole. Now I just hood my 1/4" drill to it and trim like crazy.

The hole that I tapped is where the little handle was screwed on the trimmer. Sorry I mispelled hook.
