Deuce Stevens SASS#55996 Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 Works, great, quiet and does not take up much space.
Cliff Hanger #3720LR Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 I bet lunch could get expensive. ============================== It is nice to see young people getting involved. If their interest is feed when young, they will grow up without the fear that some have of firearms and ammunition. And if we are lucky, their interest will grow in to a health respect of firearms as the tool it is and continue on with it.
Pit Bull Tex Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 I have a case feeder like that one,just a little older model.
Randy Saint Eagle, SASS # 64903 Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 Duece, it's hard to believe your case feeder is that old, I'm sure we'll be seeing videos of him shooting matches before long. Randy
Your Nemesis Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 Be ready. They tend to grow up and move away, way before you are ready. Problem is when they do your hands don't work as well and it's tough to teach them To do as good of job as the ones that just move out.
Krazy Kajun Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 Deuce...I picked the automated feeder for my Mec Jr....I neglected to add the eye protection on this run but have had it for all subsequent runs.
Sgt. Hochbauer, SASS #64409 Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 I need me one of those case feeders....thought I had one but when I mentioned it to her and said it would speed up making her ammo she made a face and walked away. Hochbauer
Warden Callaway Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 Kids always enjoy helping out - at least a time or two. 20 minutes is about the limit on any new adventure. I got an old picture (taken well before video or YouTube - it's even black and white) of my two sons helping out. One is seated in a school desk priming cases with a Lee hand primer and the other is sizing cases at the loading bench with a Lyman single station press.
Deuce Stevens SASS#55996 Posted January 14, 2015 Author Posted January 14, 2015 Kids always enjoy helping out - at least a time or two. 20 minutes is about the limit on any new adventure.

One is seated in a school desk priming cases with a Lee hand primer and the other is sizing cases at the loading bench with a Lyman single station press. He has been helping me since he was 3, he gets upset if I do it without him and he is good for at least 3 boxes of shells. He also fills my Dillon primer tubes and retrieves my dummies when practicing shotgun. He is my little shadow and I love it. I've found that if they you want them there they pick up on that. At least that's the tactic my Dad used and that's why at 33 I still give my Dad a hug everyday and tell him I love him and still love our father/son and now grandson time together, he has been a awesome example for me.
Dang It Dan 13202 Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 The overall costs of that model are exceptionally high especially when you consider a higher education but the rewards are immeasurable. Good job my friend. Let's hope you are still using this unit when you're seventy. Take Care.
Waimea Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 Always wanted one of these. They are adaptable to other tasks as well. Nieces and nephews work well too but not available as much. Waimea
Warden Callaway Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 One kid is pretty easy to corrupt into helping. Two kids are much harder to work with. You have all kinds of problems with division of labor, taking turns, one has more ability than the other but is not happy doing a simpler task. Then one starts to boss or instuct the other that ultimately ends in an argument. Three kids, forget it.

Yusta B. Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 My two granddaughters (7 & 9) pick whatever brass I miss after shooting at home, take it to their room, name each piece & write the names on with a sharpie & I have to bribe them to get it back.
