Hi Lubo,

Quick line just to say the machine has arrived safely and I've already used it to perfectly anneal one hundred Creedmoor cases. All in about 20 minutes. Which is flipping brilliant... ???

Many thanks again... :)

Cheers,

Paul

Does anyone have (or seen) A decent guide to setting up the torch/flame?

I've got the Tempilac, just wanted to see a decent method before mine arrives (around end of this month with luck)

As for steps - would people say Annealing should be the first step on fired brass?

 

Thanks

I have a question: how close of a fit does a case need to have in the disc? For instance, if I attempt to use a case with a rim diameter of .540" in a disk which is machined to fit a case with a rim diameter of .555", would it work?

Hopefully that made sense. ?

Thanks.

This propane tank will ensure a lot more consistent flame than the small bottles!

Gents,

Is this torch still recommended for annealing or is there a newer/revised/preferred torch?

All the best
