openBulletFeeder - Mount for Hornady LNL case feeder CF side

thingiverse

I am redesigning the variable hanging mount to support the Bullet Feeder Design by AmmoMike83. After printing the adjustable hanging mount to attach the bullet feeder to my Hornady LNL case feeder, I realized that the output spring would be too short based on where I wanted it attached to my case feeder. I then redesigned the case feeder side of the variable hanging mount by increasing the length of the outside part to lower the case feeder without stretching the spring and reaching the bullet feeder die. I also shortened the inside leg and flattened the inside face that contacts the case feeder so I can attach it to the flattened wall of the Hornady case feeder. Printing it now will let you know how it works. I am also designing an extension for the bullet drop tube that will increase the weight of the bullets acting on the bullet feeder die for better reliability. I will post it when finished. Update 8/12/18: Printed and decided I had to make it a little longer. Also decreased the width between the two legs so it can fit tighter to the Hornady case feeder wall (V3). I also added an adapter to increase the height of the drop tube approximately that of the Mr. Bullet Feeder. It is for the 10mm ID drop tube. Just superglue it to the drop tube. I use a M4.0 socket head cap screw to secure it to the Mr. Bullet Feeder die. If someone wants to adapt it to different drop tube IDs, let me know. I can post the Fusion360 file. It should be easy to edit for the different sizes. I printed the adapter at 100% infill to increase the weight.
