Joe, I'll snap a pic of one of mine and put it on here later today. Sorry I don't have a pic of it on file. But, I will after today!
Mine does not have blocks of wood, not that there's anything wrong with doing it that way. Mine is just a dowel with an Exacto angled blade inset into it, and a means to fine tune the length it cuts. |

Standard single edge razor blade clamped on arm. Adjustable dowels, clamped, with one 3/4" dowel. One dowel is turned to 10ga, on one end, 12ga. on the other. Second dowel is turned for 16ga. on one end, 20ga. on the other end. third, single ended dowel for 28ga. Closing the handle cuts into the hull, and a single twist of the hull cuts is cleanly.

After watching the Youtube video thats a lot easier than I thought !
But if I need to trim anymore I'll stick with my oak jig and the bandsaw .

A production way to do it if you can find a junker 10 gauge barrel at a Gun Show and have a mechanical bent. Barrel stub cut to 2-7/8", clamped in a vise and a craft saw in use. Ends of the cut hulls are easily smoothed flat by rubbing against fine wet/dry paper on a flat surface.

Frank, I'm not sure what constitutes 'production', but, as you know, it takes 12 minutes to load ( or re-load)100 rounds on a 9000 press, but it takes me almost 20 minutes to trim a bag of 2 3/4" NPEs to 2 1/2". There's no fuzz on the trimmed hulls either.

I enjoy seeing how we all attack a problem by different methods. It reminded me of a visit to our school, by a NASA astronaut, when I was (very much) younger. He said "If man didn't try to build a better mousetrap, we never would have gotten to the moon."
