Pics of my homemade Vibra-Prime

Here is the YouTube video that was my inspiration:
YouTube - Home made Dillon Primer filler.
and the improved version
YouTube - Home made Dillon Primer filler prototype 2

Here's my version

In the following pic you can see the hex wrench that I used to insure proper alignment between the black Lee flip tray and the Dillon primer pick up tube. The end I attached to the Lee flip tray was opposite the end that is used to pick up primers.

The next pic shows where I applied hot glue to secure the Dillon tube to the "trough" of the Lee flip tray.


The last pic on this thread shows how I wrapped red vinyl tape around to the make it look better and increase its structural strength..

The following pics show where I filled in the space between the Lee flip tray and Dillon tube with hot glue to increase its structural support.



The following pic shows a view from the top. I'll remove the hex wrench tomorrow. Everything should be set by then


The following pic shows my Large and Small Vibra-Primes. I’m still waiting on the vibrator to arrive. It will be touched to the side of the flip tray and stimulate the primers to travel through the channel and fall into the Dillon tube.


I see no reason why it shouldn't work as planned.

Looks good to me. You going to do a video of it in action?

No videoo, there's one on YouTube.

But, both worked fine and I didn't even need the vibrator, just tapped it with my finger. Primers slid over and fell right into the primer tube.

I did make one major mod. If you look at the pic, you'll see a raised area surrounding the hex wrench where it enters the primer tube. I used my Dremel to sand it off flat, on the same plane as the rest of the flip tray. I did it because primers were flipping sideways and clogging up the works. With a flat piece of clear plastic covering the area, primers did not have room the flip. Now this thing works just like I planned.
