I took an old electric screw driver and coupled it to my LE Wilson case trimmer. No cranking for me...

Back in the day (you remeber then, don't you Old School?) someone made an adapter that replaced the crank on the Forester case trimmer. You could then attach an electric drill. Very fast - really handy when making a hundred or so .30 Herretts. Nothing new under the sun, huh Frank?

 

Adios,

Nice Frank. I like this one, kind of reminds me of tapping parts at my fathers machine shop.

They still make that adapter Bob. I got my trimmer from the estate of an old guy that died in Middletown,NJ. I got it in about 1975. So I can guarentee it is older than 90% of the listers on here. Still works fine. I sharpen the cutter periodically.

I did the same thing to a forster case trimmer. Just removed the handle and attached an electric drill with a 1/2" chuck. Works great.
