Thanks for your reply. I appreciate that.
I guess you have to have the high feed rate to induce curls so that chips are made. I read a little about machining (turning) copper and brass and learning that the feed rate must be sufficient to create chips. I guess that holds true with any alloy.
One thing I have been doing (which may be my problem) is that I have been sizing the cases prior to forming. I think I use a Lee .223 die. I use Dillon spray lube. I am probably being generous with the spray lube.
As stated before, I used a small shop vac, but I do have a much larger one that I will use the next time I form 300 brass.
Makes sense about the bearings.
I remember a while back a guy had a RT-1200 on eBay for sale. It had a sticker on the motor that indicated the manufacturer. I got him to send me a photo of it. I will have to dig it up and share. I thought I did a little research on the source of the motor, but I have slept since then. Maybe for the benefit of the group I will look into a source again.
Any other tips you think of that would be helpful?
