    Lube: You have made it obvious that most of us haven't even gotten started yet.

    I feel so ,,,, naked,,,

    I would also commend you on your Collection and I can agree totally with your one of "every style" philosophy.

    There was a man at the Glendale Gun Show's in California who sold Hollywood presses. Looked like they were of new manufacture. One of the other gun show attendees was critical of there indexing.
    Curious if anyone has installed auto indexing on one?

    I could use a nose count on how many folke would buy one of these if I decided to make them.
    They would wind up somewhere in the $1500.00 neighborhood, dependent upon the volume of the production run.
    It would be fun.
    Thanks, Mark

    Snowschooze,

    I got your PM. I am definitely interested in getting one, but am also interested in how you will make them. The frame needs to be either iron or steel (no aluminum), and the other parts made of hardened steel, just like the originals. Do you intend on sand casting the frame?
