I've had mine for more than 30 years and a few thousands rounds. To stop the spent primers from going onto the floor I took a straw that I got from McDonald's, cut it to about 3" long and inserted it into the groove where the primer arm would go. To do this make sure that it's a large diameter straw. I also use the Lee Auto pimer for re-priming my cases. As to it getting too full and spilling spent primers out when you empty it, I just hold a trashcan under it and then any that spill out is caught in that. No fuss no muss.
