Ed, your idea would work I'm quite certain, but I'm pursuing one of two approaches, first being a simple toggle tool design somewhat similar to the Lyman 310, or perhaps adapting a die with a ram for the press that will function with the Rockchucker in the same spirit at the hammer theory. I've no doubt what you described would work, but the quick and dirty appeals for this project.

One of the points of this is to make this a marketable concept and I'm thinking that low entry price would be a key to success. Time will tell I suppose.

PS: I just learned something else. Spell Checker thinks "Rockchucker" should be "Cockchafer". I never heard of that word before.
