Have you tried to buy a "paper weight". I can't even find laser ammo to try out my new laser target recorder.

Sorry, back to boolits.

Unfy: I am 60 mi from Pensacola in Mobile, but grew up in Gulf Shores.
Ss: I did not know there was a shortage of paper weights. I will be glad when 3d printing gets a little cheaper, then we can build anything, or at least until the government bans 3d printing. Have I mentioned that I am not exactly a fan of government bureaucrats?
Off to get an oven.

Here's TOR: https://www.torproject.org/
It has "About" and other info which points out its limitations.
TOR (The Onion Ring) isn't as secure as people think. I used to run TOR but after researching its insecurities, and the fact that government can control the admin at the exit server, I decided it wasn't worth the hassle. Wikiepedia lists some of the problems:

and more than one criminal has been brought down trusting in TOR:

Here is a tutorial on how to hijack a TOR network:
Personally, I would NEVER use the Internet to transfer information I wanted to keep secret except in one circumstance. Developing a GPG 4096 encryption key to encrypt stuff I wanted to keep secret and/or transmit to others. Manually give the public key to those whom I wanted to access the info. Then I could encrypt the info and email it to the person I gave the public key to. However, if he betrays me ....
As far as owning a book about how to make a machine gun from hardware store parts, without the need of a lath, I still have the 1st Amendment. Having the information is not yet illegal. Making it is, unless I get a license from the ATF. Then it is legal. If that doesn't work then the ball game is over anyway and we have bigger problems. As far as making them for some clandestine militia ... that's not my ball game.

I did a $30 cheap oven.
Do note, a bigger oven means more bullets cooked at once, or other PC objects ;).
As a first go, it's more than good enough though.
I'll get pics posted soon.
First run: kinda ugly, but hey... I can't even use a rattle can lol :).
I'm impressed so far.
The fillet problem might be more pronounced than we might think, or I used really cheap 'heavy duty' aluminum foil, or my coat was too thick or something.
Pushed a coated bullet through a lee press mount push through sizing die and it didn't care one bit. I did touch it with just a tiny bit of case lube of course.
Hit the PC finish with a wirebrush by hand and it didn't care.
This looks like a winner so far ;)
edit:
typo correction, heading to work, will discuss more when i get there.
