Brillo Posted July 28, 2014 Report Share Posted July 28, 2014 I understand that there's a guy on this forum who tunes reloading scales. If so what is his forum name? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannywayoflife Posted July 28, 2014 Report Share Posted July 28, 2014 It's 1066 (Alan) he also builds the target master trickler. But last time I spoke to him he wasn't taking on anymore scales for tuning due to lack of time. Drop him a pm though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1066 Posted July 28, 2014 Report Share Posted July 28, 2014 Hi Guys - I'm really sorry but I just can't take on any scales at the moment. I have work coming out my ears and struggling to keep up. I only make the Targetmaster's in my spare time as I'm still working full time in the day job and have now sold them to 16 different countries. Tuning a set of scales may well take me all day, machining the fittings for the camera bracket, making the bracket, drilling the scale body and fitting a threaded insert, adding a weighted base, machining a new level adjuster, machining an extended pointer and attaching it to the beam, polishing the bearings and bearing housings, squaring and honing the knife edges, reset the zero tare weight, then check and adjust calibration through the range by carefully scraping the little notches on the beam etc. A whole Sunday pottering away on a set of scales and coming out with a good result is very satisfying but I just can't spare the time when I'm well behind with another couple of projects I'm involved in. Maybe in six months time I'll be in a better position with a bit more time to spare. Sorry to disappoint anyone but there's just not enough hours in the day.

BRYAN Posted August 31, 2014 Report Share Posted August 31, 2014 OK then. It seems that Allan is unable to tune scales at the moment. Do we know anyone else UK based. I am disilusioned with my 10-10s and wish to get a new set to mate with my Target Master. Perhaps one of the other RCBS models. Whats out there these days? ATB Bryan.
