Help identifing this case spinner...

I pick this case spinner up in a batch of stuff at a garage sale. I'm trying to identify mfg & does it fit a particular "case prep station" or whatever? It seems all steel & high quality. The shank stub is hexagon & shell holder is stamped #5. Sorry about the poor photos.


TIA...

I make case spinners, I spin cases from the other end, I know, bring back the Lee Zip spinner. I have never understand the infatuation with the Lee Zipper. A reloader that spins the case from the opposite end can polish the case head at the same time.

It appears your parts screw together, it would seem your shell holder is part of a case trimming system.

Even with those poor pics I can identify that it's a lee case spinner. The #5 shell holder is for the H&H family of belted magnum head size, 300 win mag and any caliber based on that belted head size.

It pairs up with the lee trimmer system with cartridge specific pilots that will trim the case. You also need the trimmer cutter that the pilot screws into, that would complete the set-up.

Mr. Guffey,
I'd like to see what you make.
Sounds interesting.
(If you have time and easy picture capacity)
