The best untapped resources in the USA. The older folks who have common sense! Thank You Sir.

Well said.

This old timer is a badass

[@mikemcniel3086]

i hope he is ok...he hasnt uploaded in over a year now

[@jcraig89]

Soak it up while you can. These older folks won't be around forever. This guy reminds me of my grandpa, I'd give 1000 of my days for 1more with him

[@mcschneiveoutdoors3681]

I bought a 3/4" hole punch from a craft store. I sit and watch TV and squeeze that punch knocking out cards from cereal boxes and just about any cardboard I have. Great video. Thanks for posting.

[@chicorodriguez3964]

My grandfather is a navy seebee from WW2 much respect sir thank you for your service

[@nigel900]

Very innovative and clever. Pay attention youth!…. There is a wealth of value in WISDOM!

[@ekim000]

This is a smart idea. Way easier even than using a hollow punch mounted in a vise and whacking them out with a rubber mallet. Thanks!

[@Reloader826]

Very Intelligent man Thank you for the Hint and Tips ... God Bless

[@carlherbert7773]

I use a 20 gauge brass, minus the plastic, with 4 slots filed in the exterior wall. Then slightly bend the 4 sections inward for clearance. I used 1/4-20 bolt, nut, lock washer hider. Chuck it in my drill press and away I go! Cheap. Effective etc. I couldn’t find my hole saw bit to copy his, but mine works ok too

[@davewhiteman8353]

Instantly liked this guy.

[@Mascotal]

Good job Buck. I did this too, but then I found a even better cutter. I use the metal cap on a shotgun shell. Make yourself a sizer at 3/4 inch and size down the shell cap. Heat the metal cap with a torch and pull off the plastic hull. Then use a machine screw and lock nut through the middle so you can put it into your drill press. Thin metal on the shell cap cuts real easy and never goes dull.

[@timgiles9413]

Great idea using the drill press. It has to be easier and faster and much cheaper too. In a contest, you would win "America's Grandpa" :)

[@BubbaRountreeOutdoors]

I love it Buck!! Gonna make up several of these... I just picked up a drill press! Wade

[@immortal_d2036]

I watched several videos tonight and was about to spend $40 on punches and supplies. I come across your video and WOW. I have old hole saws I can use. Thank you so much for your video.

[@mooregood2009]

Genius !! Simple, cheap and effective.

[@RANDALLOLOGY]

Great idea. I got some old hole saws that are wore out, now I can give them a new life. Thanks for the tip.👍

[@sandymilne224]

Remember, a 3/4” hole saw creates an outside dimension of 3/4”. For the inside dimension to be 3/4”, a larger size saw would be needed, UNLESS the inside edge is ground away.

[@MC-uj4co]

Yes sir there's truly more then one way to skin a cat.. Thanks from Florida

[@Ray-sj2iw]

Great tip. And thanks for your service.

[@williamrutledge8367]

Big thumbs up. My father was a Sea Bee stationed in the Aleutians during WWII... Can do! I wasn’t smart enough so I joined the Marines instead.

[@doughunter3967]

thanks friend , this is very helpful...God bless...doug (Canada)

[@andyanaoutdoors2487]

That is slick! I'm going to give that a try. Thank you for the video.

[@DODGE782]

Great tip friend , just off to make one !!!!! Good hunting

[@davidmccarterdm]

You remind me of my Dad. God bless you sir. Very good video

[@nordberserker1591]

I use a 3/4" hole punch from Michaels for black powder shells, but this is genius! I was wondering about other materials for wads and spacers, and this sounds like the ticket.

[@mostlikelywedoitservices6926]

See the older generation's use. Common sense and ingenuity. The result is good quality and a good feeling, unlike the newbies with good feelings/emotions and crappy results.

[@twoowls4469]

Great video sir. Thanks for sharing. I also liked the flip top vitamin bottle as a jar to keep them in. I use a couple of vitamins that have those lids and never thought about what to do with them.

[@jestenaguirre9108]

Great idea.. thank you for your contribution sir.

[@MotownVideo]

Wow! Terrific advice! Thanks!

[@davidlee8551]

Thanks for the good ideas.

[@Krowka666]

Thank you for the valuable information, buck. I’ll be trying this out for my 12 and 20 loads.

[@cetate93]

Just thought I'd leave a comment. I saw this video a year ago and I made some with this method, they work great!

[@1fishinghuman208]

Very helpful! Thank you! 👍

[@tomhubbard353]

Cereal boxes, shoe boxes and all kinds of various cardboard packaging works too.

[@tobykeffer3493]

Yes Sir, you helped answer a lot for me. Thank you sir.

[@larrycherrington7338]

Thanks for that tip.great idea.

[@tires2burn]

your idea works great.

[@mman9]

GREAT info. thank you.

[@mikegiordano9445]

Thanks, great idea

[@guachinango582]

Thank you!

[@sandymilne224]

I like the idea of cork wads for black powder loads. Felt is generally recommended, so cork seems to be a good substitute.

[@wldmcmullen]

thank you sir shared info is wonder thing.

[@Jeremy-km4dj]

thank you so much for sharing

[@12floz67]

I appreciate the tip.

[@stevanrose7439]

I found a hole 🕳 punch block at harbor freight. It punches from 1/4 inch to 3/4 inch. The 3/4 works great in 12 gauge. Not as fast but in a few minutes I can have a lot of 3/4 overshot cards. And this punch set will punch metal as well for other projects. I use about any cardboard box I find.

[@michael-zg2co]

thank you !!!

[@steveww1507]

got to be the seebee hat . Thanks for your service

[@christopherpeterson1400]

Great tips.... how about replacement for the plastic wad?

[@martyhonda6983]

Old school reloader… great idea

[@saradolphin3242]

Simple and Hope your still Kicking!

[@moiecol]

I just getting ready to order some punches from Amazon while surfing KZbin. Then you pop up with the best idea ! 👍👍👍

[@ronboult8947]

I made the same but I cut a slot in the side ,when the wad reaches the slot it is thrown out, so make a shield round the pillar drill.22mm cutter for 12g

[@dannycomment779]

Mr. Buck, can I reload 12 gauge ball slug using fiber wads only no plastic wads if so do you have a recipe.

[@5tonswguns219]

Hello there Buck, you have won a hammer made by 5 TONS W/GUNS! Thank you for your time please contact us soon.

[@williamburch6792]

Can Do Seabee, good vid

[@geolopez914]

Can I buy one of those for a 12 gauge?

[@rachelgee7894]

Can I buy a couple different sizes from you? You’ve got the method down pact.

[@carlherbert7773]

I use a 20 gauge brass

[@tkarlmann]

I noticed he did not say what the diameter of the hole saw he used for 12 GA.

[@1000186ful]

What size do you for the 12gauge?

[@johnwalters7415]

What size do you use for 12 gauge over powder? The 3/4 is too small

[@gerrymatheson4020]

3/4 is for 20ga... 7/8 is for 12ga I believe...

[@mklean1]

Can Do MCB74

[@michaelthomas8376]

Does anyone have a link for the various sizes cork sheet pack? I’ve searched Amazon and cannot find it!

[@joyceknepper366]

Unfortunately I don’t have a drill press. Bummer!

I want

[@onlinebills9169]

You can go to Michael's and get a 3/4" hole punch and use any card you can get your hands on, including your unwanted Xmas cards, cereal boxes, your ex-wife's photos! If you want to go REALLY cheaper than that, use sheep's wool or cotton balls and seal with melted candle wax.
