    Bare boolits with no lube is my guess.

    Rubber band around the Lee bullet sizing catch cup. To keep it from popping off as it get more bullets in it.

    No it's a Lee. Mounted on a single stage press sizing bullets.

    FYI -- a copper coated mild steel rod is not a "brazing" rod, it is for oxy-fuel *welding*. For brazing, you use a lower melting point filler, often brass or bronze.

    Lol I know that! I got twisted trying to explain where I found the rod. It was in the section with the brazing rods at the hardware store.

    I'll second that. I kept this thread saved for a future build and totally forgot about it.
    Anyone know of another video for this type of set up?

    Build looks pretty straight forward;
    Bullet collater (DIYs on you-tube)
    Lee Bullet Feed Kit
    small Lee press
    Lee sizing die kit.
    You'd need a longer sizer punch

    The only thing I'd like to see is how the action rod (actuates the bullet feeder) is attached to the press

    I asked him about that. He said he drilled a hole in the longer punch and then stick a metal rod (drill bit in his case) through the hole and hooked it around the plate of the bullet feeder.

    Why not apply your talents to a Star setup where you can size and lube in one motion??

    Because I already have a Lee single stage doing nothing and I want to size coated bullets.
