Shop made roll sizer for 9mm

This was my latest project. I made a roll sizer on my CNC x2 mini mill and CNC mini lathe running Centroid Acorn and CNC 12 software. I used 12L14 steel alloy for the project.

Nice! Seems to function very well. I ordered a rollsizer and should be here in a few days! I own a design/manufacturing company and I can understand the anger rollsizer feels when seeing something like this. It’s happened to me with several of our designs. Folks, please don’t be too critical of companies that get upset about these things. Please remember these companies bet everything on these designs and put countless hours into perfecting them. Then they have to find a way to market and distribute them while making enough profit to pay for all the employees required to get a machine out the door from start to finish. I know it’s probably hard to understand if you’ve never done it. I for one, do appreciate seeing the ingenuity people reveal in these projects, but it can be difficult for the originator. I’m completely capable of duplicating a rollsizer, but honestly I make more money doing what I do, than what I’d save building one. Congrats to this man and his project, and thank you to rollsizer for furthering our abilities and knowledge of the reloading process.

way good idea.

[@alumicomp]

As far as dimensions between the internal roller and the outer wall, is that dimension the exact size of the case or have you allowed for a certain amount of over pressure to allow for a desired dimension after spring back..?

[@rodrigoarija2009]

Thats great! congrats! do you have some schematics?

[@flyingfranklin]

Nice work! What motor did you use?

[@MolesNoMoreEurekaMO]

Wondering what kind of steel you used? Heat treated? Thanks!

[@p7094]

can you point me the dight direction to get those parts made?

[@mario3804]

Is this to help with the case bulge?

[@mr1hander]

very nice ,,,the only thing i would change is to change out the top support bearing in that gearbox to a high quality version...i have two of those gearboxes and they are known for low quality bearings and fit,,,hell of a job though

[@yankmachain_gunfighter]

Thanks! Any ideas where I can get a replacement bearing and the part number?

[@mr1hander]

@@yankmachain_gunfighter hey boss, a better idea than changing bearings would be to raise the wheel just enough so that you are not roll sizing the rims of the cases ... is the wheel itself tapered or is the outer body of the sizer tapered. again killer job

[@yankmachain_gunfighter]

@@mr1hander I have a slot milled into the outer body as well as the center disc to accommodate the rim of the case. I did not incorporate a taper in the parts. The only point of contact the sizer has with the case is where the bulge is.

Do you have any dimensions that you built this to?

Hi, guy. How are you? Is it possible to share the project with dimensions? Tks

[@snowgorilla9789]

Great job, was looking for a cheaper alternative to the "patend bully " may also do one myself

[@rollsizer5623]

WOW, so you are ok with people ripping off small businesses such as myself when we have sunk $,000's of $ into our business? i hope this happens to you at some stage.

[@thumblebone]

@@rollsizer5623 You dont seem to get it. People are turned off by your rude attitude and condescending remarks. This guy isn't offering these for sale, he's just showing off some of his handy work for personal use as far as any of us know. You want spend your working capital on a lawyer half a world away to prosecute a hobbyist? Yeah, he took inspiration from your roll sizer and probably countless others on the market. Do you need to be recognized for that? If so, why? In this context it makes no sense. If you really want to protect your business and the thousands of dollars you've invested in your company I sincerely suggest you stay out of the comment section and focus on more of your own content, because your replies here are doing you way more harm than good.

[@joshuacrites4821]

I was looking at rollsizer. Your attitude is a put off. You can keep your product, I am no longer interested in your company.

[@rollsizer5623]

@@joshuacrites4821 it's called protection of my business. I'm sorry if you think that.

[@ericdayrit4600]

do you have one for sale?

Sorry, I made it only for my personal use.

please schematics

[@8five7oneheadspace39]

So if the in Australia is so protective of his over priced "invention" , there is another commercial version of this product from Brazil --> kzbin.info/www/bejne/q4XcloCherGZn5I The question now is.. who really invented what? lol Rollsizer.com, lessons you should learn is figure out how to make your product better and make money in volumes rather overpricing them and selling less. someone is always going to make similar products, just like there are many different brands of cars. The product from Brazil looks better and way cheaper. Leave the hobbyist alone!!

[@chgofirefighter]

I'm looking at the one made in Brazil :) Rollsizer is nice but highly overpriced if you asked me~

[@terryclark3221]

i just tried to look at the youtube video for the roll sizer made in brazil it no longer exists. do you by chance have a link to order from that company?
