Ditto on the Lee dies recommendation. The Factory crimp die can be fine-tuned to provide a nice tapered crimp to your semi-auto cases. It also resizes the outside of the case again if your bullet bulges it out a tad.
I'd also recommend a case trimmer, since you're loading .45ACP & 9mm brass. Case length is important on autoloader calibers since they headspace on the mouth.
If you've got a Dremel, I'd recommend getting their #443 wire brush. It makes quick work cleaning the poop out of the primer pockets.
Oh - a tube of JBWeld will come in handy when the wood knob comes off the press.
