When reloading with the Hornady Lock-N-Load AP progressive reloading press, I noticed that hunching forward to lower the lever was causing discomfort for long reloading sessions. I also discovered that grabbing the ball on the end of the lever was not the most comfortable grasp for extended use. So I developed this "Ergonomic Roller Lever Handle". It raises the effective minimum height of the handle at the lowest point by 7". That means that I don't have to hunch forward when loading. The roller handle makes for a better hand hold on the lever while loading. Check it out in this short video:

I would be interested in buying one of those handles if you are interested in making me one. You appear to be a pretty handy guy, interested in making a Dillon Strong Mount type mount for my Hornady also?
Thanks

If you do not have a roller handle installed on your press, you don’t know what your missing! My back feels better, my arm, and my hand. This a must have over the factory handle. Thanks Gavin.

Hi Gavin,
Are the factory handles long enough to bend and then mill a flat, drill and tap for the chromed machine handle? Or, does one need to start with completely new stock and go from there?
Thanks,
Jeff
PS Strong mount stand is turning out great. Got a coat of primer on it today. Probably topcoat Wednesday. Hmm??? Red or black???
