Fen tiger Posted October 26, 2018 Report Share Posted October 26, 2018 Info please! On an auction site a year or so ago i saw a commercial wad cutter pres, i did not pay that much attention to it at the time but if i remember correctly it went for about £100. I am interested to know if anyone has any photos drawings of such a machine. Or alternatively any ideas on cutting wads other than punch and mallet etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vince Green Posted October 26, 2018 Report Share Posted October 26, 2018 There is some stuff on youtube, I haven't been through it all myself but it might be a place to start looking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fen tiger Posted October 26, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2018 (edited) Thanks for reply i had a quick look on youtube, but did not find exactly what i wanted but this video using a hole saw in pedestal drill looked quicker than a punch.

figgy Posted October 26, 2018 Report Share Posted October 26, 2018 You could use a leather press punch, the type with a big long handle with counter weightand screw that winds down, also used for print pressing. Just attach the wad cutter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just attach the wad cutter. Know the type you mean , Fly press we had one years ago a norton that would do it but one i saw on ebay cut any size wad . I should have taken more interest of it or saved some pictures at least. I was hope full some one on here would have one or seen one , i have a inkling it was American in origin .

hatsanmad Posted October 27, 2018 Report Share Posted October 27, 2018 Have a look for a group called uk cartridge reloading. The guy who started the group is a rep for gaep I think and has been working a some products and filming how to use them and one was a wad punch you put in a pillar drill. Aswell as a plastic wad spliter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
