An short but interesting video for geek factor for anyone into it.

It's cool to see things take shape and watch a blob of brass turn into a case I reckon :geek:

Seen a few ones for bullet manufacturing too, always interesting to see the whole process, lots of diff stages to making cases that's for sure.

Cheers mate and thanks for sharing. :thumbsup:

Bertram brass in Seymour VIC had a "Open Day" last Saturday where you could see the case forming process from start to finish. I couldn't get there but if anyone is nearby then Bruce is generally happy to give a quick tour ")

Amazing what a bit of pressure and heat can do.
