My tube flaring dies

[eric brinkerhoff]

In another thread about tube flaring I promised to show a picture of my two flaring dies if I could find them. Well I found them and here they are!
I made them on my old Atlas 6-in lathe and they work very well in my old RCBS reloading press!

That's a great idea Eric - Until you mentioned in in other post I'd never thought about using my old RCBS RockChucker press for flaring tubes, or even setting rivets in Kydex. Good thinking.

Love your idea. Now you've got me wondering how many things I could use my reloading press for. Very ingenious.

I would buy some of those off you if you were selling them. It's an excellent idea that I don't have the tools to replicate.

I'll make you a set

Eric, do you remember what angle you cut the tip (flaring part?)
