There was some discussion about actually posting the pics, both from this & from the unwrapping a mummy thread I ran.
Unfortunately I'm running out of space on the bucket so I'm waiting for the "archives" thread to get completed. Once that's done the original pics will be right here on the forum, instead of linked in externally.
I'm just waiting for the word that the forum is ready & then I'll just send both files (words & pictures) to be posted.

No problem, I have the whole thing saved on the PC as a Word document complete with both the pictures & the now dead links.

AFAIK the archive is still under construction.
I have the files & can try e-mailing them to you if you like.
(e-mails have choked on the file, as it's kind of huge at 2.2 Mb!) or mail you the file on a CD although this may take a while to SA.

Thanks for the pics  Shamu.They make sense to me and will try it the next time i resize. This would be huge meaning to me because to buy cases in SA is VERY expensive.
Thanks once again for sharing the info.

Glad it worked out for you.
BTW how the heck much is brass in SA?
I'm thinking that unprimed brass ought to be shippable without any problem & maybe it'd be cost-effective to buy a batch here in the US or in the UK & split it among a few close friends.

Will do, CM, but I was thinking that this would work best if the prices in SA were high enough that a US purchase might offset shipping costs split between several paying SA prices if the difference between US & SA prices was different enough.
 
If I find a deal it'll probably be in the US, so I don't see how much of a great deal I could cook up (no pun intended) that would be cost-efficient within the US.
Who knows nowadays though.
