I use a radial arm saw with a fine blade and a homemade jig.

Earlier I had made the same sort of thing but without the support for the piece being removed and it worked okay but it slung the waste all over the place and made it more tattered looking . This slot jig with support for the waste cuts out the flying waste and cuts a lot cleaner . I have the hole bored tight enough that I need to use a wooden dowel to punch the finished hull back out . Oh yeah I do the cutting with a band saw .

Ron, that looks ideal. When I'm not too lazy, and have a number of shells to cut, I go out to the shop and cut them on a bandsaw. Bill, you got me thinking, maybe a nylon dowel.

Do you guys thin (skiver) the hull walls after you trim them?

I don't and I've never used the BPI brass crimp starter. The plastic Mec one works just fine.

Edger did a right fine job making his version of a trimmer.
