openBulletFeeder - Mount for Hornady LNL case feeder CF side

Description

A part that supports the Bullet Feeder Design by AmmoMike83. After printing the variable hanging mount to attach the bullet feeder to my Hornady LNL case feeder, I noticed that the output spring would be too short based on where I wanted to attached it to my case feeder. I then redesigned the case feeder side of the variable hanging mount by increasing the length of the outside part to lower the case feeder to not stretch the spring and reach the bullet feeder die. I also shortened the inside leg and flattened the inside face that contacts the case feeder so I can attached it to the flattened wall of the hornady case feeder. Printing it now, will let you know how it works. I am also designing an extension to the bullet drop tube that will increase the weight of the bullets acting on the bullet feeder die for better reliability. Will post it when finished. Update 8/12/18: Printed and decided I had to make it a little longer. Also decreased the width between the two legs so it can fit tighter to the hornady case feeder wall. (V3). Also added an adapter to increase the height of the drop tube to appoximately that of the Mr. Bullet Feeder. It is for the 10mmID drop tube. Just superglue it to the drop tube. I use a M4.0 socket head cap screw to secure it to the Mr. Bullet Feeder die. If somebody wants to adapt it to different drop tube ID's, let me know. I can post the fusion360 file. Should be easy to edit for the different sizes. I printed the adapter at 100% infill to increase the weight.
