Lyman Press?
« on: July 24, 2005, 08:40:44 AM »
Can anyone here tell me the name of an older Lyman turret press that was red in color, mounted on top of the bench instead of over the front side. I haven't seen any of these since the 1970's? Was this the "All American"?

Are you thinking of the "Lyman Spar T"?

Wasn't the Spar-T orange and operate off of a single center post? This one was red. My memory is as short as other parts of my anatomy, you could be right but, I think this one predated the Spar-T? Sure wish someone had some pics? I'd know it to see it.
