I built one out of the following parts I had at home and ones I bought at the "Surplus Center".

1. 60 RPM 110 volt motor.
2. Rubber cork w/hole in the middle.
3. Electrical cord.
4. Light switch box
5. Light switch.
6. Wire Nuts.
7. Lee case holder.
8. Propane torch.

Total cost: $8.35 IIRC, not counting the stuff I had at home.

Practiced on some Berdian primed 308 cases and I am going to anneal my 7.5x55 brass once I fire the reformed cases. (Made my first batch from .284 Win brass.)

I plan on marking 40 7.5x55 cases, 20 I will anneal every second or third loading and the other I won't anneal. If the annealed ones last alot longer then I will know that I am annealing them correctly. I plan on annealing alot of my brass now that the prices have increased to the point where it is now much more cost effective to anneal. 7.5x55 makes the most sense because the brass is expencive compared to other calibers and the K-31 is a cool gun.
