What would you charge to print one?

I didn't design it so it wouldn't be ethical to charge for it. I can print one for a serious reloader and not a hobbyist.

Was going to ask the same.

Maybe if you could estimate cost of materials and time to see if it was worthwhile.

I’ve been looking for an excuse to but an ender or something else so maybe it would be worth it.

Was also looking to print some bell buddies for fishing but those are like $3 to buy so hard time justifying me dropping like $800 or more for a nice setup.

I dont know where I fall in that spectrum. I am still ramping up.  And in times of no primers to be had, its been a tough road to hoe. APP still hasnt made land fall on Oahu yet either.

I'd be willing to trade for a 1 kg spool of printer filament, tell me you favorite flavor and I'll amazon one.

Finally arrived Thursday, set it up today, that dumb piece junk makes me laugh pretty hard because of how well it works. Just looking at it, it really shouldn't.

After easily and quickly de-priming 500 cases today I figured out a couple things, one I needed to set my pin a touch deeper than usual, the rare hanging primer was worst thing that jammed up the flow, two you learn to use a little 'english' on the lever and can short stroke problems of feed alignment without having to start poking finger in there to correct stuff not hitting the case holder correctly.

I have a ton of 5.56 to swage next weekend, if that goes half as well than this thing was a super solid buy.

Yeah, if for no other reason buy one and the swager add-on.

By far the fastest / easiest way to deal with military brass I have used so far.
