this looks like a copy of my RCBS case trimmer, which gave me blisters.
You have it backwards Forster was copied by RCBS….
You un wind the handle and chuck up a power drill onto the shaft, just don’t go Mach chicken with your cutting speed………
FWIW collet size brass and trim less.

Did someone use this unit?
It seems to be working well

I tried this method already and it didn't work that well.
Maybe I did something wrong, and give it another try.
WFT
But it won’t work on straight-ish walled stuff like .30 carbine or 44-70.
RCBS pro-trim 2 with 3 way cutters if money isn’t a problem. Those are the bee’s knees.
If you get into F-class there are really expensive bespoke trimmers but that’s for when 60FPS is the difference between an X and missing paper.

I have set my RCBS TrimPro2 up with several three way cutting heads for my popular calibers.
I haven't used it yet, but i bought a hornady case prep center not too long ago. I think it will be a fairly quick and painless system, but a 3 in one cutter head would be fantastic.I know it's possible to have a universal 3 way cutter head because lee has it for their quick trim system, meanwhile rcbs charges like 150 bucks for a caliber specific 3 way cutterhead.

Looks like a universal version of the Little Crow WFT. Should work well. I use a WFT for higher volume rounds and find it works well

Rcbs matchmaster. Trim and chamfer 100 rounds with accuracy in 12 minutes.
A three way cutter head for your RCBS trimmer would help. Trims, deburrs, and chamfers all in one go.
I replaced the screw that attaches the manual crank handle with an Allen head cap screw. A Torx head screw would probably work as well.That way, I can use a cordless drill with the right sized bit to do the turning.

The RT1500?
It is inferior to the ones I mentioned because it only does a 1-way trim. I had one and sold it. It leaves a nasty flange on outside and inside of the case mouth.
