Announcing the New Hammer HHT

It's coming home to roost. They just passed a minimum wage law that will put the fire mitigation goat herders out of business......
Idiots.

As a production tool designer I can see where a machine to install those tips would be a pretty good trick. The tips themselves are not an easy shape to pick up. I'm guessing inline vibe feed will be the best option. Sort them for orientation prior to the feed system with a vibe bowl. Same for the bullets. Unless the tips are identical for all calibers I also suspect that you're looking at it not being an easy conversion from one cal to another and that it will take a dedicated machine for each caliber. Not that such a machine couldn't be changed from one cal to another, just that it won't be an easy thing to do.

This is why I still enjoy this forum! Love the perspective of a tool and die guy trying to solve a problem!

And congrats to the OP. I take my hat off to anyone who has the sheer stubbornness to take an idea and turn it into a reality.
 
But are you used to snow with wind? LOL!!
Yea…but NOT that kinda wind. I've fishing on the middle of a lake with no icehouse because dad was too much of a redneck, yeah, we had wind and sub-zero temps. Not even sure what those "wind chill" numbers were. It's kinda like worrying what the heat index in AZ is…it's 120 degrees, who cares! MN is like -40, who cares! Hahaha. Made me really dislike my friends that had the two story ice huts with stoves, tvs, and all that. But hey, I'm living the dream and they're drunk at the bowling alley still. Hahaha. Al Bundy!!!

So far all the bullets are designed for the same tip. As we increase caliber it is possible that the design could need a larger tip in order to initiate and complete expansion, particularly in low vel impacts. Testing will tell. I am pretty sure we will be able to stay the same through 375 cal.
 
Because of overpopulation and the influx of socialist from other parts of our nation…. I'm pushing for the Wyoming Representatives and Senators to pass a law with mandatory vetting of those moving into our state. I'll also push for the removal of the leftest from Teton, Albany, and Laramie counties.……which will dramatically improve our state and lower the population considerably! memtb
Just to clarify, you're advocating for giving the government the authority to forcibly remove American citizens it deems undesirable? I can't see that ever becoming problematic...

Seems a lot easier to just be a good neighbor and show new folk the benefits of guns/hunting
