I'm surprised Giraud won't ship to Canada, I think that mine was shipped direct, I know the extra cutter heads and case holders were.
I sent them a mail to see what they think of this, we'll see what gives...
I think they are correct on reversing the motor. If motor is not spinning correct direction you will loosen the cutting head. It should be spinning anticlockwise at the cutter head to work correctly i believe.
Inverting the blade would put the wrong angle on the inside/outside of case neck if you left it in the same position. Need to make sure you still have 15 deg leg on the inside of case mouth. Look close at the cutting blade. One side should be 15 deg the other 45 deg on the "v" . The 15 deg side is meant to inside chamfer your case mouth.

That makes alot of sense. I just looked at my blade, there is a subtle difference in the cutter angles.
If a guy wanted to change the rotation direction.
What wires would he be wanting to change. Asking for a friend

Just got back from
Testing this.
Shot 30 rounds this morning, and took them all to the primed state to try this, even loaded 5 dummies I then pulled.
I can’t thank you enough for taking the time to post and share this, I am truly grateful.
Now my brass is trimmed/chamfered/deburred as nice as my Forster 3in1 did, and cuts even faster, with an ultra smooth edge.
I owe you a virtual beer

Yellow and purple. Swapped the plug ,got reverse .
Changed the blade and WOWLike Marty said. Big difference.
Thank you.
Glad it worked out for you guys.
Started my own low cost solution today. Anyone know where cheap motors can be had? Thinking blower for furnace or drill press. Using a hornady 3 way cutting head.
Everything either has metal inserts or bearings, surprisingly strong. The only cost prohibitive parts are the motor and cutter head. Going to mount it in an electronics enclosure. Printing all the pulleys right now. Sorry for hijacking op
