AutoDod IDOD Powered Neck-Turning Machine

Here is F-Class John’s review of the impressive AutoDod IDOD machine, the most sophisticated neck-turning machine on the planet. This F-Class Products machine uses twin precision cutter tips to turn case necks inside and out quickly and efficiently, with superior precision. The cases are held securely in a precision-machined spindle attached to an electric motor. Twin blades move precisely during the cutting process, milling the necks inside and out. The turned necks come out perfect every time, with the shoulders trimmed exactly (with doughnut removed) as well.
