    Die holders

    I recently got a 3D printer and I got bored one day so I printed out this die holder to hold all my dies that are lying around all over the place. It holds 8 dies with Hornady bushing, will work without bushings also but it will be a little loose. I can make them for the ones without bushing also. There are 3 holes for the mounting screws and these are made out of ABS plastic. I think $8 each plus shipping should be a good price.I now have 4 die holder for $5 and 3 die holders for $4.

    wouldn't it be cheaper/faster to make to just put some holes in wood/acrylic/aluminum? granted you'd have to mount them to the wall with a L bracket.

      Looks good man, great idea. Will the lee breech lock bushings fit? Also, would it be possible to do a set of 4 instead of 8?

        That's a neat idea for often used dies. I have LNL bushings on all mine too, and dremeled out the boxes so they would fit (barely on most).

          Yes I can make a set of 4. I will have to check later to see if they fit the breech lock.

            I don't like the look of the L bracket, and beside, I just got the 3D printer and just want to make something.

              That would be great for regular dies. Have you done any for something like rcbs type
              Dies.

                Not yet, but I can, they are just smaller diameter then the ones I already have.

                  Nice work brother. I use the LnL bushings too and they don't exactly fit into the standard cases very well. Very tempting.
