Die storage

[alanwk]

I have had my dies stored on the 3 hole turrets in the Lee round container. The does are installed in the turret and ready to insert into the press. Now Lee does not have a round container to fit the 4 hole turrets. So my question is how do you store the turrets that are loaded with dies? Thanks

Get creative and build some small wooden boxes. Or do a lot of shopping for something that will work within your needs. Try some PVC pipe maybe.

Would the dies fit in a plastic coffee can? I have my Dillon tool heads setting on a shelf with crown royal bags over them to keep the dust off. I wish I had a better container so I could throw in a desiccant pack or or at least rag with a little oil on it.

Sounds like something could be whipped up pretty easy with a 3D printer: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4286643

Yeah!! Maybe someone here knows someone who does that. Looks amazing.

Some 4 die turret holders on FleaBay....some pretty pricey....

Quite a few on Etsy, too..............

I have se the 4 hole turret and fit fine. A couple are a little tight, but I sand them so they fit.

Most of my round boxes are old. Maybe the older ones fit better?

Sometimes local libraries have 3D printers and you might be able to print it there.
If you can't find anything else, let me know and I can print one on one of my 3D printers.

Amazon product ASIN B08N3DX19L
I use something similar to this for my Dillon tool heads.

Here is a picture of mine. They sell fairly well on Evilbay....

I really like Rusty's idea

I am printing this.

I've stored all of mine in PVC pipe coupling's for decades.

Check on Etsy. A lot of 3d printed stuff is available on there.

Because of the humidity, I keep mine in a cloth bag sprayed with silicone oil, within a plastic zip bag with a couple of silicone moisture packets all within a polymer canister. It's worked quite well.

I agree, you could just drill out a nice 2x4 and set the turrets in there.
I use a cardboard box stored in my reloading bench drawer. It fits all 6 turrets.
