Very slick. That could be just the answer to free up some space on the top of the reloading bench.

Looks interesting and priced right but after watching the vid the plastic sleeve and shoulder bushing look a little "cheesey".
I'm pretty fussy about a real clean and smooth case mouth. I'll be sold if i hear the cut quality is first rate....if its only about saving a second or two per shell I'll be happy to stay w/ my 3 way cutters on the rcbs lathe and the 5 station trim mate.

Trimming is not one of my favourite tasks. Anything to simplify the job has my attention.

I despise it! I rather have a root canal!
This is why so far I use the lee case length gage system!

Check out the trimmer from Little Crow.
Just got mine Friday but have yet to use it.
Was too busy shooting shotgun tourneys all weekend.

The Little Crow Trimmer was reviewed previously. It appears to be a great product for those who have quite a bit of trimming to do.

HOLY SMOKES! I am a fan! I was thinking of some other stuff but that thing looks real slick!
Who is going to be the first to have it? Looks pretty well built if the motor holds up, should be real good.
I like it's method of trimming as well. Indexing off the shoulder and being adjustable just looks real good.
Fotis, you looking at getting it?

I have been using these for about a year now (three calibers) and wouldn't be without it. All of my match cases are trimmed after each firing to ensure they are the same length. For someone that is starting out and hasn't invested in brass prep equipment, the Franklin may be a great entry level tool to do everything.

Congratulations, Fotis. I will definitely be looking for your assessment after you get it.
