Accessories Stuck in quarantine? Mark your brass!

All Sniper's Hide members get a 15% discount with code SH15.

I am a Middle School shop teacher so I've been bringing 3D printing to my students to broaden my curriculum and hopefully show them some cutting edge things to get the fire lit under them with the design/engineering/hands-on fields.

Version 1: Stealing the general design from my Version 2, this will now accept any size brass from .223 up to .338 with the "V" channel. This version will NOT mark the gap just above the rim on the brass but will put up to 2 lines that are offset from the Version 2.

Version 2: This version will allow you to mark just above the rim of your brass along with 1 other line on the case. The "V" channel allows it to work with brass from .223 up through .338 with some minor adjustment of the marker depth.

"Swedish Swirl" (Model 27): The Model 27 will allow you to uniquely mark 3 sharpie lines on your rifle brass so long as the diameter of your case is similar to a .308 or smaller.

All sales can go through dpetfabrication.com.

If you have any special requests like specific color, lettering/engraving, bulk order for club/event please PM or email me and I will gladly accommodate you the best I can.

[Purvins]

Ordered, looking forward to trying it out. Thank you!

 

[flirtinwithdisaster]

Thanks to those of you who ordered! Still have some available.

 

[Olen_4504]

Awesome! Simple and cheap!

Tall order here:

Can you make one that marks just above the rim in the recessed part of the case? I’d be in for one if so.

Like this:

 

[flirtinwithdisaster]

Prototype already in the printer. Should be able to have a working one within the next 24 - 48 hours.

You da man!

How about one that will mark 6.5 PRC brass? The larger diameter bolt face (.532 or .534) would require a differ piece. I would be interested in a standard and magnum bolt face that would mark the the indent above the rim. Let me know. Thanks

Take my money....

Put me on the list for a blue one of these.

New version I worked up last night to get that pesky gap above the rim. If you already ordered one and were interested in the newer version please let me know and we'll work something out. I hadn't realized that spot was so popular to mark on brass and didn't intend on making something for it but here it is! These work on 223 up through 338 (that's the largest brass I have).

The first run will only be in blue and are in the printer now.

 

[FERNT]

Can you make one for larger diameter casings? I need one for both standard and magnum.

If you can, I would take one of each.

The new version will/should work fine with any size casing. I used it on my 223 up through 338 brass.

 

[GrahamVT]

Il take one of version #1

 

[Tnc]

I’ll take one of version 2 for the rim. PM payment info please

 

[FERNT]

Funds sent for my two ?

 

[PinesAndProjectiles]

I’ll take a newer version one that marks just above the rim for the sole purpose of supporting tech classes in the schools. Kids need exposure to this stuff, and I could use a way to mark my Brass. Seems like a win/win.

Pm inbound.

 

[kriller134]

Payment sent

 

[BullzeyeNJ]

I will take one of version 2

 

[smoooth1]

Neat idea!

Now, if you will forgive my ignorance, why are you marking the brass???

It’s so you can tell your brass apart from others at matches or the range in general

Gotta get my $1.50 6 Dasher brass back!! ?

 

[19Scout77]

Is today April 1 and I missed the memo?

 

[flirtinwithdisaster]

All orders have been mailed out and should be in everyone's hands no later than Friday 8/2! I was able to crank out some more V2's in Red and still have some V1's in various colors. Get'em while they're fresh off the printer!

 

[Purvins]

Received and working perfectly, thank you sir!

 

[Joshf303]

Same here.....A+....

Just spun a handful of 6.5/6CM, 6 BRX, 6 BR on the Version 2. Works like a champ!

 

[kriller134]

Got mine the other day. Haven’t tried it yet, but I’m sure it’ll be fine. The jolly ranchers are a nice touch. Thanks a lot!

 

[Ghost1941]

Good cause too.

Send me one of each good sir. Sent you a pm for payment and shipping details.

 

[Oxn316]

Ordered and thanks for the quick reply.

 

[flirtinwithdisaster]

Got some blue Version 2's ready to go out along with the red and a few yellows.

 

[Lthrt]

PM'd you for a V2 in any color. Thanks!

 

[flirtinwithdisaster]

Have some Blue and Reds ready to go!

 

[Lthrt]

Got mine today, that was fast! Spun a few 223s to fire form in my AI. Worked great, looks cool in red on my shelf, easy to find in my mess

 

[GrahamVT]

Got mine a week or so ago. Works great! Thanks again!

Why do I want to mark my brass?

 

[flirtinwithdisaster]

Why do I want to mark my brass?

If you reload and want to collect your brass after a stage, it makes it easy to identify yours from the other piles collected after that stage. If you don't reload and let your brass lay, no need to mark it. For those of us shooting Lapua brass at almost $1/piece, it's important to get that back. With good reloading practices you can get many firings out of reused brass.

 

[Deleted member 10043]

I see thanks

 

[Derrick Graham]

How long does it take to ship?

 

[flirtinwithdisaster]

I ship First Class so usually 3 days from the day I drop them at the mailbox. I have some going out tomorrow and should be there Wednesday or Thursday.

 

[Precision Underground]

This is awesome. What do the kids think about all of this? Show them something to make people send them money and you get their attention quick!

I've been creating/keeping a portfolio of all the steps it took from the initial idea, prototyping, refinement, testing and analysis all the "behind the scenes" stuff to use in my classroom as a real world example when we start school in 2 weeks. My goal is some of my more motivated students will be able to create something to sell through the same process as I did.

Nice. Count me in for a v2 to support the cause. Color doesn't matter. I'll check the thread for paypal info put PM it if it's not listed.

 

[Mike440]

Received mine today. Awesome design and works great!
Edited to add mine is a V2

 

[flirtinwithdisaster]

Now using thumbscrews for quick "tool-less" operation and updated Version 1 to make it a little faster and more stable to use. Those of you who recently ordered have thumb screws included when I shipped them. Thanks!

 

[flirtinwithdisaster]

Have some fresh V1 and V2's in orange ready to go along with some other colors.

 

[HR218]

Well, it actually happened with some help from family and friends but I took another step forward and I now have a website along with a legit LLC. I guess this technically means I am "expanding"! Thank you for all the support and I look forward to continuing this new adventure of a side business. If you ordered one of my original designs and are interested in one of the newer versions, please PM me!

I will be updating this thread with new details later today.

After being asked by several people to make a "swirl" version, my buddy and I have drawn up another variant to make swirl, lines, or zig-zag marks. Jokingly called the "Model 27" and affectionately called the "Swedish Swirl" it's up on the site and ready to ship!

"Model 27" aka the Swedish Swirl
