Yes. Not sure if by type, model or gauge. Work in progress. If you want sub-forums for gauges, its easy enough.

I think that as I start to crank them out from inspection, RepIr, and pint that I will just number them for easy tracking. Something like VRAP SS 1, SS 2, etc

SS = Shotshell

That works. Make a post for each. List any specifics for each, go from there. Work in progress.

I believe I'm going to have several mec jr presses available for loan or donation. Whichever would be most beneficial for the group. I think they're in decent shape and there's 3 or 4 of them. I'll keep y'all posted. Once I get them and evaluate there condition I'll post again with pictures and we can decide best way to use them.

I'm going to give him a call when I have them and evaluate what kind of condition they're in. A neighbor passed away and I was telling his widow about the program and she said that would be the perfect place for them to go. Thank for the response.

Even if they are in bad shape they will be welcome as parts donors to get others going.

For others reading this, please send all shot shell press donations to:

Eric T. Adair
60 Merry Knoll Ct.
Conowingo, MD 21918

Eric will evaluate presses and verify operation, then send me a price value for the donation.
Donation records are kept in the Admin/Moderator section below the Vendors section...but only visible to those with mod or admin credentials. The records are there for all to witness. I usually ask that name, address, (EIN # if business) phone number be included. There is a section opened just for that person, and all donations throughout year are tallied with price. At end of year, the prices are tallied and donators get a hard copy and digital copy of the tax write-off. Copies of the write-off are in the admin mod section, and hard copy in my safe. The primary board members will also have hard copies of everything, so that if anything happens to me, VRAP can continue on without me.

Thanks for all those that have donated.

Thank you for your service.
