    The sheath to be trimmed is placed inside the sheath holder and then the assembly is placed on the guides, which is held with the L-shaped press.
    It is a copy of the Wilson case trimmer

    Very nice, I have a Wilson case trimmer and yours looks to be a good copy. I have done a few mods to mine such as the case holder clamp and a bench mount. This style isnt the fastest in the world, but you can get a good rhythm going.

    I had incorporated an electric motor into my system but was not convinced and removed it. It was very useful when I had to reform the .300 Winchester Magnum pods to .338 as there are a lot of cutouts and there were around 30 pods. But the system is armed to put it back
